This was our first time staying at this property and it was awesome. Very clean updated rooms, friendly staff and tasty chocolate chip cookies. The ocean view from our patio was awesome. They have several fire pits with plenty of seating that made the evening nice and relaxing. This free breakfast was also good. This will be our go to spot to stay while in Pismo.

Bed bugs I got from this hotel ruined my trip. My family and I arrived about 10pm and left about 9:30am the next morning for a quick stop on our way. In that brief time I was bitten many times by bed bugs. I have had to send pictures of my body where I was bitten to Expedia and the hotel and gone back and forth many times, all to not get an apology or a refund. Please consider staying somewhere else. The nightmare of having to wash all our suitcases and clothes upon returning home, bites that are itchy, and the disgust of feeling violated will stay with me forever. In addition, we heard road noise all night long. I would never stay here again.

Room and Overall Property are great. Amazing Views. Right on the cliff. Lots of amenities (pool, hot tubs, fire pits, restaurant on site). = 5 Stars. Apparently this is a VERY dog-friendly hotel, which means I was woken up very early by very yappy dogs next door (that were yapping at the countless dogs walking around all over the property). -1 Star The breakfast situation is a joke. They basically have a walk-in closet with less than 10 tables that was meant to accommodate all the guests. -1 Star Would I stay here again? Maybe. It was nice, but not worth the very high price.
