Hotel Room Keycards Stopped Working A Lot =UNSAFE!
My mom & I came 4 a much needed Mother-Daughter getaway. Check-in was super easy. Our request 4 the 2nd floor was granted--TY Inn at The Cove! The room was quite lovely, although it would've been extra lovely 2 have a small table & chair area 2 enjoy our clam chowder taste tests:) We did try out the balcony (THE VIEW😍😍😍) table & bar height chairs--which made said taste test a bit too precarious. The hotel is perched atop some breathtaking little cliffs, making the ocean break a most peaceful backdrop. My mom and I especially fell for all the pelicans. We also loved the swinging loungers for two💕💕. The complimentary coffee down at the free continental breakfast area was delicious. I wish I could say the same for the Keurig pods in the room, which were very UNdelicious. :/. The breakfast was ok...prepackaged pastries, cold cereals (with only soy milk and 2%, both of which I cannot drink--a bummer), hard boiled eggs, apples that sadly had seen much better days, do it yourself waffles--very impressed:), & some very watery oatmeal--but the toppings looked very fresh. The king size bed was comfortable! The only thing I would offer would be 2 switch out the sheets 4 a set that is as comfortable as the bed. Anti slip material in shower💙 H2O pressure👎. Constantly leaking faucet👎 The pool was WONDERFUL & refreshing; the hot tub--PERFECT temp. Cherish at the front desk is a Gem. And the keycard ordeal? The main culprit for our 3 /5. :'(

This is a beautiful property, conveniently located central to so many great attractions in the area. This is our new favorite place to stay when we are in Pismo, 3-4 times per year. The staff is wonderful. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Amenities such as breakfast options, the pool, and outdoor spaces add at nice touch to the experience. Thanks again to the Inn at the Cove crew. We'll see you next time!

The setting for the Inn at the Cove cannot be beat, it is beautiful! We enjoyed our stay here, and would have enjoyed more time to enjoy the amenities offered at this Inn. The breakfast was also a plus. We tried a restaurant that was recommended by the staff, and it was also a great choice! Would definitely stay here again!
