Service, accommodation, and rooms were very nice. Rooms recently renovated, which include a nice, well put-together bathroom. Rooms also include microwave, refrigerator, and iron/board. Comfy bed. No immediate beach view, but we use the room for sleeping, and are generally exhausted when we get back, so we appreciated the quiet simple room. Perfect for a one-night stay where you spend most of your time out.

Average basic beach motel. Close to beach and close to highway. Good spot for traveling to Avila Beach and Arroyo Grande. Easy check in and check out. Decent dog fee compared to other hotels. Cute decor.

The motel was clean and very comfortable. It is conveniently located. Close to the pier; I would say it is walkable for folks used to walking. I had to drive.

Pictures don't do this justice. The motel room was super clean and spacious and looked like it had recently been renovated. The staff were really helpful and friendly. Free parking (and we could stay longer than check in if required to visit the area). Comfy bed. Great access to the beach and pier.
