I love the fact that the room is renovated. I love being able to walk out into the beach. I didn’t appreciate the loud noise coming from upstairs.

We selected a single queen bed room for 1 night, the room was very very small, only enough room to walk around the bed, no hot water in sink but some in shower which also very small. Restricted use of ice machine (in office which closes at 9pm). There are better options in Pismo Beach will no stay here again
