Great view from our room.

View - fantastic. Room - clean and updated. Bathroom needs and new fan and the bed isn’t great. But the view in the nicer rooms is amazing.

Staff was very nice. Room was very clean and I loved the view of Morro Bay. We had two queen beds. One bed needs replacing, the other bed was fine. I mentioned it to staff and they were grateful that I told them.

Great short stay for newly weds

We had a short stay, but we were happy to have no issue with not checking in until almost 11pm. The room was very spacious and had a great view of the Morro rock

I had an excellent stay here. Very responsive staff. They even upgraded me to a room with a view of the Embarcadero and harbor and Morro Rock. My room was so close to the harbor that you could hear the barge full of sea lions howling all night. I actually enjoyed it and even cracked open my sliding glass door so I could listen to it during the night. If you're one that needs absolute quiet at night, you might want to bring ear plugs.
