Staff was accommodating and made out late arrival easy and convenient. Close to everything that Morro Bay had to offer. The only less than 5 Star rating would be the comfort of the beds.

This was such a cute, small adorable motel! The price was right and the location even better. Cute room, nice shower, comfortable bed (mini shampoo/soaps). I liked that there was a table with 2 chairs, a ceiling fan and dimmable light. The parking was tiny, but it worked! Super friendly staff. Easy check in and out. Will definitely stay again.

The Morro Crest In. Was the best wonderful suprise of our road trip! The front desk was kind and helpful, the room was the best in our opinion! Quiet at the end on the upper floor with a beautiful view of the sunset and Morro Beacb rock. The room was so clean- remodeled and still classic. The bed was the best rest all trip. We will be back! So much natiural beauty to explore close by too❤️🐬

Love Seagulls then this is you place!

Big trucks in parking made it impossible to park. No air conditioning but did find day two a fan which also blocked out the sound of the sea gulls which were no joke noisy all night. If you just need a place to sleep and close to water then probably okay.

Good accommodation.

We had a comfortable stay in a quite place, very close walk to the restaurants and shops down the beach area. No AC but cold at night and was able to open the window for ventilation.

From the outside it looks like most motels in many small towns in CA - regular. But never judge a book by its cover! The room was clean, the bathroom was also clean and modernized considering the age of the building. Overall it was a pleasant surprise to stay at this motel. Also, its location is within walking distance to a bunch of downtown stores, eateries and the like. If the need arises again in the future we would stay at this motel.
