Room window had a busted slab, could see right into the room from the street. i asked for it to be addressed, since at that price this was insane, and the manager told me he would bring me extra towels to shove into the blinds. Then never brought the towels. It was the WORST.

Quiet hidden gem

I took a solo trip to pismo after splitting up with my significant other of almost 8 years. I had stayed at this hotel in the past and found it to be pretty close to the pier. It is situated in an established part of pismo, but I found it to be safe and clean.

Great location

Good for the price and better for the location. 5 minute walk to the beach great area. Only issue was a broken bathroom window with pieces still stuck inside the window. Bathroom was a bit outdated and moldy but for the location and price... you be the judge :) I'd stay again tbh. I might bring my own cleaning stuff though and a area heater.
