Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Location was great. Oceanfront, 3 minutes walk to the beach, and restaurants. Front desk was too busy on the phone and ignoring two people waiting to check-in. But after wards he was a nice person. The room was clean but very small, no table no chair. The shower way too small; if you are a large person, I definitely don’t recommend it to you. The floor was annoyingly sticky. Price was affordable

The location cannot be beat! Literally steps away from the pier, beach, restaurants and downtown, we did not have to move our car once during our visit. Our second floor room had a view of the ocean, and we could hear the waves all night. Parking was easy and Wi-Fi was fast. That said, the property is tired, walls are thin, bed so-so and our room was quite small. For the price, it was perfect. If you are looking for luxury you might want to upgrade.

Super close to everything, the property is nice, and the staff was great. The only complaint we had was the floor in our room was not mopped and after we showered our feet turned black… had to ask the front desk to run in and mop while we went to dinner.

It’s a bit old and run down, you can hear your neighbors talking - but the location is perfect! It’s super clean, everything works as expected and the staff was very sweet and helpful. We had problems with our booking and they accommodated us easily. So overall we were very happy with our stay :-)

Was charged in additional fee apart from everything I paid through the application I used Expedia. I found sand in hair on the pillow and sheets unable to speak to anybody about the issue. I just left five hours after the check-in taking my loss. I couldn’t have my family stay there. I was not comfortable. Neither were they with the room being unsure if it was even clean.

The place is slightly rough on the details, but pretty much exactly what is expected of a place that is literally on the beach (and pier). The room space is also on the tight side but workable. They do keep things clean and the noise levels are normal, sometimes very quiet. The sound of the waves makes for a calming experience. In high tourist season the noise level goes up of course. Not the most fancy place but if you like the idea of getting to the beach in 1 minute from your room, then this is the place.

Nothing fancy. But you can’t beat the location. Walking distance from the beach shopping and the main area of Pismo Beach. If you are looking to stay in the room on vacation pick another place if you are looking for just to stay and sleep. You can’t beat this location.
