This is a beautiful hotel! The rooms were exceptionally clean and the room we got allocated was really large with a lovely outdoor seating area in the front. You couldn't get closer to the beach, the parking was very handy too. The bar is also in the perfect spot for an evening drink with the fire pits too

Situated on the ocean front, the Cottage Inn by the Sea is located in Pismo Beach, California. Free WiFi is available throughout the property and parking is available on site.

Guests can use the sundeck that overlooks the ocean. The Cottage Inn also features a heated outdoor swimming pool.

This hotel is spacious, both the property and the room. There are enough parking lots in the property so that there is no difficulty for tourists driving along the CA highway No. 1 to find free parking space. There is also a beautiful garden and a (small) swimming pool behind the property so that guests can take a seat and enjoy the sea view there. The room is comfortable and clean. There is an electric fireplace inside the room which is cool. We booked a sea-view room and it’s amazing to see the Pacific ocean from the room and go to sleeping while listening to sound of ocean waves.

A cable TV and a mini-fridge are furnished in all rooms at Spyglass Inn. The traditionally decorated rooms feature warm colors and include a clock radio and hairdryer for guest convenience.

At the Inn Spyglass restaurant, guests can choose from a variety of menu items. Featured dishes include omelets and stuffed French toast for breakfast or filet mignon for dinner. Dining is available indoors or on the patio with views of San Luis Obispo Bay.

Room was lovely with two big beds and a TV. Tea and coffee making facilities, a desk and plenty extra space. Bathroom was really elegant and well equipped with lots of towels (including pool towels) and bathrobes. The pool was open, but we didn't go in due to the rain. The restaurant and bar nearby was really nice, and there is a short path to the beach walk where you can look at the ocean. Staff were really lovely on arrival. Parking was included at no extra cost.

    Amazing coastal view. Really close to the beach - you can even walk there barefoot if you want to! Excellent heated outdoor pool. Spacious room, really comfortable bed. The laundromat round the back of the hotel was very convenient. Great location close to shops and restaurants. Very quiet too - not much in the way of the usual bangs and hums you get in motels - just the sound of the distant waves!

    We stayed in a dozen of similar establishments during our road trip through US but this one was by far the best. Great value for money, good location, best equiped room I have ever seen in this price category. Overall it was much better and much cheaper than all other similar Hostels. Definitely recommend to stay here when in the area.
