Cute little inn on the cliffs of Pismo. A bit older but clean and well-decorated. Hot tub was a plus. Front staff super friendly and they accommodated a late checkout since we got there so late the night before. This motel has beach access, which not all of them do. Would stay again for 1-2 day stay. My son enjoyed the games in the common room while we had breakfast and each room has a fireplace.

Everything was positive, the staff was acomodating the only problem was the windows were dirty, and it messed up the great view. But that happens with seaside hotels.

The room was quite spacious, bed was comfortable, loved the 2 big windows with a partial ocean view. I’m glad Trisha put me in a quiet room too. Trisha was very pleasant and a delight to converse with and a good sense of humor. I look forward to returning again soon.

We love this gem of a hotel. The location is perfect, service is always friendly (even though the front desk is sometimes understaffed, they are always friendly), and it has all of the amenities we enjoy. We’ve stayed a few times and look forward to coming back again!

Incorrectly charged for room waters. Otherwise it was very lovely and comfortable as usual.

It was great but I do think they should add a gate in front of the fireplace my daughter sat by it and leaned on it not thinking it was hot “there is a sign but it’s small” and got second degree burn. It’s a very nice place to stay and will stay again but for the younger children maybe a small gate would be good.

It was all great

Great stay - nice room, nice staff, etc. Two improvement:
1) get the tub/shower to drain faster, and 2) provide some plastic water cups (2?) instead of only the two coffee cups.

The stay was so nice so when we wake up we decided to have another night. When we came there was not to many people at the cottage making it very cozy, they have a lovely heated Jacuzzi and the fire places was magical to sit around during the night. Really cozy place and understand why it`s called cottage inn. If you have the extra 50 bucks I do recommend the ocean room, waking up to the waves of california was truly magical.

This property looks exactly as pictured. We reserved an Oceanfront room, and it was lovely and had an awesome view. Along the bluffs, there is a beautiful park walk with lots of seating and fire pits. A great place to enjoy the sunrise and sunset, which because of Pismo's situation, you can see both. There is also a nice restaurant in walking distance to the hotel.

Had heard some bad reviews but actually it was a nice stay. Room was renovated. Liked there wasn’t carpet. Bed was decent. Loved the fireplace in room. Good shower/toilet. Lighting in bathroom was just ‘ok’. Not bright enough for putting on make-up ( ladies) they do room cleaning on ‘request’ only. Sheets were little ‘worn’ but towels were nice. I would suggest liners in trash cans.
Front lobby dining area ‘inviting’. Think maybe they should think about squirting down stairs ( we’re a little dirty) when going upstairs & cleaning windows ( had a partial ocean view which was nice)
It was quiet too which was nice
All this said, I’d stay there again

We had a lovely oceanfront room with a fireplace. Not too sure that we would have been nearly as pleased with a room that was not oceanfront.

Beautiful views, friendly staff! Unfortunately no restaurant on sight, but a 2 minute walk to an amazing restaurant called Blast & Brew. And just a 10 minute walk to downtown Pismo.

I loved the room! Everything was clean, well kept and up to date. The fireplave was a lovely touch. A meer walk to the beach with firepits for guests. Only reason I gave it a 4 star is because no vent in restroom. Has a small window but still wasnt enough. Made it hard to get ready in the bathroom or take a hot shower. The walls are also very thin. We csn not only hear the upstairs guest but also everytime someone used the ice machine. Hard to enjoy full undisturned sleep.

Super comfy beds, fireplace in every room, the Oceanside access is really beautiful with fire pits provided by the hotel. It’s January so the hot tub was clutch!

Everything was just perfect. Beautiful property built like a British cottage next to the Pacific coast and Pismo beach with a charming well. The staff was cheerful and courteous. I have nothing negative to say about this Inn.

The name says it. It is by the sea! We enjoyed the walkway to beach. Sitting by the firepit and listening to the ocean is a bless.

The one issue was that the blinds did not close completely on the front window. So I had to set up something to block people from seeing into my room. As a single female traveler, I did not feel safe with people being able to see me on n my room.

Waaay too many people were there unfortunately (New Year’s Day weekend) and this caused some minor inconveniences with respect to access to the hot tub, fire pits and parking. Will plan to visit another time of the year when there’s not that many people. Other than that it was quite a comfortable and relaxing stay. Pismo Beach is awesome and the views of the ocean and the pier from here are stunning!
