There was lots of parking, it was difficult getting to our room definitely a weird layout. Room was decent because of the balcony and view but there was black mold on the ceiling in the bathroom and what looked like blood stains out our front door. Also, the freeway is very close and you can hear it all night. They have a private beach that is not easy to get to and completely unmaintained the stair case is dangerous I fell getting down at the end of the staircase. There’s barely any beach and what is, is unusable covered with seaweed/nats and birds not to mention the smell. I would not stay here again.

Love the stay and the local retreats. Very laid back; Eat , sleep, walk, eat , sleep, repeat. Front desk staff was great. Only issue was the cleaning staff; noisy and rude. All in all a great stay. We will be back to our "beach house" soon.

We had a wonderful getaway at Inn at the Cove. Our ocean front room was beautiful. We sat on the balcony watching the birds. We walked on the path both days and it is very convenient to downtown Pismo.

This hotel has an amazing view of the coast. It is situated on a cliff and has very beautiful grounds with a nice pool, swing chairs looking at the ocean. All rooms seem to be beach-front. Our room was very clean. The staff is very friendly. There are numerous dining options in the town about a mile far.

What an amazing property. The only reason it got a four for"Around the property" is because of the traffic noise from 101. Not the property's fault but it did make a little difference on the relaxation. But overall everything else was outstanding and God willing I will be staying there again in the future. Thank you Inn at the Cove!

We Loved the INN AT THE COVE! Close to the pier and shops but not too close. The views and walk ways with those outside large rocking chairs heaven. The hydration station was a nice plus. Breakfast was simple but perfect for us. The room was clean bigger than expected and quite comfortable. We are not wine drinkers but the evening wine tasting seems nice. Also not having to pay for parking was great. Would stay here anytime!

The staff were all very friendly and accommodating, especially Martin at the front desk. The place was very clean and maintained, and very peaceful and quiet (except for the sounds of the birds and the ocean!). A beautiful place with beautiful views, spacious rooms, and and a peaceful vibe. We will definitely be back!

This was our second visit to The Inn at the Cove. We had reserved a poolside/ ocean view room but we were upgraded to an ocean view room at no extra charge. The room was spacious and comfortable with a great bed and an out side balcony with chairs and small table. The property is well-designed and it will be a place for us to return.

Very nice place. We enjoyed our stay, the rooms are good size and nicely appointed. Very nice ocean view from the balconey. I recommend 2 items, They should update the old tub shower to a walk in with sliding doors for a little more space. At the evening reception they should pour a glass of wine not just a small tasting pour, (kinda chincy).
