My husband and I stayed for 2 nights Mid-Week in May 2013 for around $55 per night (Queen bed). POSITIVES: Clean, newly painted in & out, very cordial on-site manager, nice view from room 212 overlooking Morro rock and bay. Four pillows for queen bed. Comfortable mattress. NO SMOKING rooms that smell good. Great price! CONCERNS: Gap under the entry... More

We stayed at the Econo Lodge, Morro Bay while visiting my son in Templeton, CA. It was extremely clean, cheap, quiet, and extremely reasonable. It was only a couple of blocks from the beach. It had good parking and provided a continental breakfast for $89. we stayed for two nights. It was perfect for us, as we spent most of... More

I didn't compare rates at any other hotels in the area, so I can't say if $75 a night was too much or not. But what made this hotel so enjoyable was the manager. There isn't a computer in the lobby although they do have free internet connections in the rooms but when I explained that I didn't have a... More

The Morro Bay area is pretty nice. This property is just OK, I suppose. Not the most comfortable. Even in October it was rather warm, and the air-con is just like blowing air, not cold air. The outside air is cooler, but I would not be game to sleep with the window open, considering people can just walk outside your... More

I called to confirm my reservation two weeks ago and it was confirmed through a staff memeber. The day of my arrival I called the hotel to tell them I would be checking in late. I was informed that there were no more rooms available, I was shocked since I made the reservation in September. Now I am three hours... More

I've never had such a displeasing experience than this one when it comes to lodging. The manager literally came out of his office and screamed at my boyfriend and I when we called Travelocity to switch our room. We complained to Travelocity that they gave us not the room we requested. Unbelievable. When we walked in the room it smelled... More

Even though it wasn't close to downtown, I booked at Econo Lodge because everywhere else was either unreasonably expensive or was booked. Now I'm glad I found this gem. The owner was very helpful - recommended a restaurant, suggested a nearby grocery, and gave me the name of a good bakery downtown. When I came back through town two days... More
