Our standard room with a king bed was large. We liked the fact that there were two wash basins. We enjoyed the bird posters and prints. The breakfast was okay, though the coffee was too weak. The hotel was quiet and there was sufficient off-street parking. We could walk to restaurants and coffee shops. We'd stay here again.

Nice rooms liked the fact that there were full size bath amenities to use, not to take. Quiet. Breakfast was good. Make your own waffles and other morning food stuff. The only problem was when we were ready to check out, no one was at the front office to get a printout of the bill.

This property is in an ideal location. Half a block from the Morro Bay main strip (on the water) and 500 yards from restaurants and lounges on Main St. This property as of this review, has been newly remodeled, so everything is extremely clean and tidy. We visited on Labor Day weekend, so it took a little longer to check in, otherwise, this is our new go to property!

Well kept. Very different from all the motel like properties in the city. Pet regulations were a bit extreme. Front desk staff suggests they laces to eat in the area. Would have liked 4 pillows on the bed instead of three.
