This hotel is in a great location if you are traveling to Morro Bay. It is two blocks to the water front and many stores and restaurants (all reasonably priced). Hotel was clean and roomy. Breakfast was standard but plentiful. Happy Hour wine tasting was a nice greeting (timing was right). More

We live 150 miles on the coast 'down south' , but have been staying here for the last 7-8 years to escape for a week and hike the local trials on the coast. We are in the 50+ age group, but have always found the front desk staff very knowledgeable and personable. Yes, it is an older property and voices... More

Pleasant hotel in good location, within walking distance to restaurants and Morro Rock. Our room overlooked the parking lot; better view would be the rock. More

This place was in a nice location close to the Embarcadero and Morro Rock. Checked in late and was a little hard to find since it was in a more residential area. We stayed on the weekend so the town was nice and quiet, plus it seemed like the town was tranquil to begin with anyway. The reception is in... More

We spent one night in Morro Bay. Actually we didn't make any room reservation in advance, we just drove to some motels and asked for a vacant room. Finally we decided to go for the Best Western and didn't regret this decision! After we talked to the receptionist, she gave us 20$ off the regular room rate. Our room was... More

My husband and I stayed her for one night on a Tuesday. We were allowed to check in early. The guy at the front desk was friendly and got us checked in quickly. The room was a little pricy, but expected because of the location. When we got in the room it was clean and pretty large. All rooms have... More

The only 3 stars about this hotel is the price. We booked it through 'Hotwire' as a 'too good to publish hotel name'... now I know why. This hotel is dated and tired looking. The bed covering in our room was marked and stained. The toenails on the floor were disgusting. The hotel staff were good, pity they have to... More
