This is a very average-looking motel with WONDERFUL ocean views from the second floor balconies. If you crave staring at the ocean from the comfort of your motel room, this is for you. The beach is accessible by walking down a sidewalk and stairs. There's a pool in the middle of the parking lot. We paid $229 for a Thursday... more

Good location, nice people, fair rates but the age of the motel creates problems for guests who are assigned lower floor rooms. Even when the guests above are walking through their room normally the floor squeaks are very distracting to the point of not being able to sleep. The refrigerator in our room was quite loud and we had to... more

Just so you know, it is NOT walking distance from anything but a Shell gas station. If you want to go anywhere you need a car. Also, we got "upgraded" to a room with a balcony...and it overlooks the parking lot. Not a bad place to rest your head, but NOT a resort or destination. more

We stayed here for a weekend. We attended a wedding that took place. The hotel itself is just ok, nothing to write home about. The room was nice and spacious, the bed was really comfortable and the sheets were clean. There is a fridge hidden under the sink that doesn't work that well. The weekend we stayed there was a... more

We wanted a room near the beach with a view of the ocean. The hotel was about 3 miles away, so we needed to always drive to get to the beach and downtown Pismo Beach.!! The view was fine (oceanfront) but I was truly disappointed at how far we were from the Pier. We should have checked this out more... more

I loved this hotel. There is a nice view but be sure to get a second floor ocean view room. We stayed downstairs in a fireplace ocean view room the first night. The ceilings are very thin and we heard footsteps all night long. After they moved us to an upstairs room it was fantastic! I would definitely stay here... more

Recently stayed at the Spyglass for 3 days - we upgraded to a ocean view room which was incredible. We could see dolphins swimming in the ocean in the mornings from our balcony alongside the surfers. Room was very clean, and the area itself was very quiet. Its about a 5 minute drive away from "downtown" Pismo. I would definitely... more

I was planning a surprise trip for my boyfriend to Pismo Beach this past weekend and when I was looking for accomodations came across The Spyglass Inn. I always read reviews on hotels before I book and found this place had good reviews, but what really caught my eye was the price of the room. Since I was on a... more

Pay extra to stay right next to the ocean with a view, you won't regret it! We stayed on the second floor and left the sliding glass door to the balcony open all night to hear the waves crashing on the beach below! The property has lush vegetation and a restaurant on site. Being on a cliff, however, it is... more
