Weekend getaway

We had the most wonderful stay at this coastal B&B. To my delight the condo was available for ealry check in. When we arrived at the house it was clean, decorated with light coastal touches with a fully equipped kitchen. It is conveniently located near restaurants, shops and walking distance to the pier. The area was peaceful and we look forward to staying here again.

Place was not entirely clean unfortunately as there was hair in the tub and on the commode and on the stairs facing the kitchen. The police also smelled like somebody had smoked marijuana. This made me feel nauseous. Maybe you guys need to post up a role that there’s no smoking marijuana or cigarettes because it leaves a smell in linens and curtains and rugs. On the upside it’s a big place and walking distance to the beach but cleanliness is supposed to be important and they’re also should be no smell smells

Beach trip

Took wife and daughter and few friends for beach trip. Walking distance to pier and beach, nice unit, spacious. Just recommend updating doors to electronic code or cards. Also large vehicle cannot fit in garage, so parking was tuff to find around the day time and early evenings.

Not what we expected

Very smelly moldy smells downstairs in bedrooms and in the bathroom. Carpets need a very good cleaning, Kitchen not stocked with some basic essentials for cooking. The pillows must be 20 years old. Very bad. TV's worked great and lots to pick from.

Great location in Pismo

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed a long weekend at this property. The King bed was comfy for us and our kids took advantage of the guest room and loft so they had their own space. The location is convenient to walking to the beach, but be sure to bring your own beach chairs and beach towels as there are not any in the condo. There are a lot of stairs, so beware if that is an issue. There is no elevator for bringing up luggage, groceries, etc. There is also no ice maker so bring a bag of ice. Overall it was a decent stay with garage parking which was nice. We rent a lot of vacation homes and I was worried about this one as it had no reviews. This home is new to the rental market so probably will get better with time and more guests giving reviews. Overall a decent stay.

We were visiting family up and down the coast and needed a place somewhat centralized and what a bonus we stayed in Pismo. Even more of a bonus was the condo! Walking distance to shops, restaurants and the pier. Highly recommend!
