Cottage Inn By The Sea

This is a beautiful place. The bed is soft enough for a side sleeper or a back sleeper. The only complaint I have is the bathroom smelled like mold when you turned on the shower I am very sensitive to this. I believe the shower head needs to be changed out or cleaned.

This place was everything I hope it would be! The room was amazing and the staff were all incredibly pleasant and helpful. I cannot say enough good things about it!

Perfect location for our family vacation.

Room was good, but their was a fight at midnight between a guest and some people that were making noise just sitting on chairs overlooking water, their verbal altercation went on for over 30 minutes, the people in the chairs were not guest, I know not staff fault but made impression on stay

Very clean. Good serviceBut the house price is a little more expensive on weekends.

The area is beautiful and the room was very nice, though the AC was broken and we were not told in advance.

I found some spider web under night stands. I reported to the guy at front desk. But we love the hotel we will back.

The staff was great. The room was clean and quiet, but with no breakfast, a small pool, and dirty parking lot it was very overpriced.

Really enjoyed our one night stay, wish we could’ve stayed longer, will be back. Beach access was great, pool was heated, room was big especially the restroom. It’s charming and clean.

Very nice rooms. Ours was large and comfortable. Parking was easy with the required valet parking.

Quiet location

Clean room, staff was wonderful, property is beautiful !

Great stay with my family!

The hotel could use some refreshing. Our room was very small. The closet was so small and narrow that a small travel suitcase couldn’t fit in it. We had to put in on a stand in the entryway, which was awkward. The room and bathroom were clean, but the bathroom had no fan and only four hooks under shelf above the toilet to hang towels or anything on. The door faced the entry door a few feet away which faced another room’s entry door a few feet away, so one had to be careful! We paid extra for a partial sea view which was just a glimpse through lower buildings, but mostly a view of the roof and parking lot. On the whole, it wasn’t a relaxing space to hang out, but fine as a “home base.” Since it was the off season and the hotel was not remotely full, it would have been nice to be offered a better room. The hotel did send us many messages via Expedia to upgrade (at a cost) but the links all had “upselling” written into them, so I never even clicked on them. Also, you have to pay for parking - $12 a night. It wasn’t a bad stay, but we would not stay there again.

The property has a set of lounge chairs along the cliff overlooking the ocean - I had my morning coffee there and spent my afternoons with a book and friends there. Very very nice

Wow, Wow, Wow. This hotel is a gem. It was my first time staying here. This was our first stop on our road trip my kids and I were taking. We could have not driven anywhere else and spent 4 days here that's how much we loved it. This is in such a great and secluded area in Pismo Beach. The room it self was very cute and the beds in my kids words "These beds are like clouds mama!" were so comfy. There is a beautiful walk down to the beach where the waves are calm and its shallow great for the kids. the hotel lobby had a great selection of bord games and had a filtered water dispenser. The also provided alcoholic beverages, wine and snacks from 8am-10pm. Such a great stay and we will be back again.

Can't think of a single thing to complain about. Will definitely stay again if we decide to go to Pismo in the future

This place was a lucky find for sure! Not only was it clean, comfortable, and convenient, the staff went above and beyond to help us. We had a very short notice change of plans, and Monique was not only gracious and understanding, but she was also extremely helpful with our schedule change. We will be back for sure!

Staff super nice

Nice place
