This was our first time staying at this hotel. Very clean and easy to get around. Best part for us was the view. Either looking through the window, or sitting on the balcony. WOW! Very cool. Cinnamon rolls and breakfast at Frankie and Lola's was also really good.

Lots of work needed
When we first checked in, we had to have the front desk come to our room to get the TV working. After using the toilet, water came out from underneath the toilet and soaked bathroom floor. Front desk moved us to a different room. Shower pressure was very bad. Also, didn’t sleep well as the room next to us had dogs that barked constantly. Location is great and felt safe…otherwise, not again

Worst USA hotel room in 38 years
Chose this property for a 1-night stopover due to its location in Morro Bay, for which I'd give it a decent rating, but that's where it ends. Room was small but tolerable, but it was run-down and dirty with (human?) hair all over the floor. The toilet cistern was faulty and running all the time, the bowl was badly stained, several insects were present and when flushed, the water was brown. We refused to stay in the room and no longer had an appetite for the property. The desk clerk was reasonable and apologetic. Despite several contact attempts to discuss a refund, the owner has refused the courtesy of a reply.
