I had an amazing stay at this cozy little cottage in Pismo Beach. The space was clean, comfortable, and had a relaxing, homey feel from the moment I walked in. It’s just a short walk from the beach, making it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the ocean.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pros: it was a nice size room with nice hardwood floors and tiles. It was nicely decorated and clean. The bed was form and had great pillows. It was next door to a restaurant. There was enough parking and the property was clean. Cons: the water pressure in the bathroom sink and shower was just a trickle (I’m not exaggerating) and was heavily with softener solution in the water. The opening to the shower was tight, and the refrigerator was loud.

My family and I enjoy staying here. The property is well kept, friendly staff. We love the cottages as they a very accommodating for family’s with kids and pets. It’s in a very safe area. They also have bike rentals available on property with little baskets if you don’t feel like taking the car downtown. Overall I highly recommend staying here.

Room was super nice and clean. The staff great! I didn’t give a 5 because the fan was too noisy, upstairs noise was loud, someone had a party and we could hear music playing at night. Couldn’t sleep 🛌! I requested an upstairs room and they didn’t have any….😏

Charming little hotel

Charming visit. Room was clean and renovated. Front desk staff was very friendly. Instead of water bottles they have a bottle refill station. Loved the fire pit and that I could text the staff to come turn it on for us. Only downside was the stairs to the beach was closed because of erosion.
