Other than there is no beach access directly from this hotel, overall it is a decent hotel. It looks updated. The rests of the cottages appeared to be under renovation.

Real cool spot. I got the 1 bedroom King. Real clean, updated and pretty quiet. I didnt hear anything crazy or super loud. I stayed on a saturday. Good spot to stay if youre checking out Pismo. Also a $40 Uber to SLO or 10 minute drive. I would definitely stay again. I wont stay if prices hike up. Competitive price but i feel like other options might be better at a lower cost. Over all it was all good. Yes, the shower is a little small. Might have dificult fitting two people in it comfortably. Also, yes half the shower door is missing. Yes some water will bounce off you onto the floor near the toulet paper and toilet. If youre careful, you can avoid that. It didnt bother me personally but it is strange to see that. Im not sure if theyre planning on adding something to stop that, but doesbt seem like it.

We were forgotten about and ended up with late check in, even though we were there at 2 30. Our tvs didn't work, and we were sent a technician to help that was unable to get any of them in the cottage to work. Compared to the photos, everything in the cottage was just dirty and worn down. Staff was very friendly though.

We stayed for a family trip. Room was exactly as pictured. They are doing some remodeling so parking is limiting. Due to train containers in parking lot. Bathroom is small and no where to hang wet swimsuits. Upon checking in I was early by a few hours and was told they will text when room is ready. However, never received a text. Next morning I went to take a shower but no hot water. I contacted the front desk by text. Due to no direct line to front desk. After a few minutes, I was told maintenance will be working on it. Approximately 30 minutes later I received another text that hit will be back on in 15 minutes. By this time I took a cold shower. I’m not a happy camper.
