I was looking for an inexpensive getaway for my husband and myself. This place was reasonable. If you're looking for luxury, this isn't it, but if you're looking for a place to lay your head...it works :)

I have been staying at this hotel, every time I have gone to Morro Bay, for the past three or four years. Though it has been purchased by other people, this hotel is still a very good, clean place to stay. The prices are reasonable and the people who own and run the property are nice personable people.

Made reservations months in advance of our group's April 19 arrival. I asked, and was confirmed for a two queen bed room by Mr. Patel. I told him that I would make the reservation with a credit card, but would pay for the reservation in cash upon my arrival since I was splitting the cost of the room. Well, arrival... More

Hello Sir, I am sorry for the confusion my desk clerk caused. He is fairly new to the position and I had stepped out that day. I would have gladly helped out when I returned the next morning. I assumed you gentlemen were all ok as no one came forward to ask anything. Everyone seemed to be having a great... More

I, apparently, had picked a bad weekend for just wandering down the coast because there were several car shows in the area and rooms were scarce. I felt fortunate to find this motel. When we drove up, I'll be honest to say that our stomachs fell just a bit, however, it turned out that this was little was just fine.... More

Traditional motel near the sea. We had a couple of nights here with our two children in two interconnecting rooms. Very comfortable and clean with the bonus of breakfast. Excellent value for money. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Old two story unit with clean rooms. The shampoo was nice. The bed was comfortable. The location was very convenient. Unfortunately you could here every thing from the room above, both sides and out front. And the price seemed too high for the accommodations. I will not return.

Hello there, I hope you are enjoying your day. Thank you for the review. I am sorry that the neighbors were rowdy and were noisy. There are things that the hotel cannot control sometimes. I would have gladly asked them to lower their voices if I would have heard from you. I hope that wont be an issue next time.... More

This is one of many motels along the Main Street "strip" in Morro Bay. I'm glad I had TripAdvisor to help me pick. The room was clean and comfortable, with lots of nice little touches. The price search (from TripAdvisor) surprised me: several sites quoted prices around $70 for a single -- much higher than TripAdvisor showed. But Booking.com had... More

In the San Luis Obispo area for a research trip and chose Morro Bay and the Morro Bay Sandpiper Inn as my base camp. Couldn't have been more pleased after a 3 night stay, especially when you factor in the very reasonable room rate. The ground floor queen room, while small was adequate space, sparkling clean with a comfortable bed... More

My husband and I needed a dog-friendly place to stay on our way to Northern California. It was a last-minute trip and we didn't have too many options, as most places were already fully booked. Luckily, the Sandpiper Inn still had availability, so we booked a room. The accommodation was basic, but it served its purpose. Pros: Very clean rooms.... More
