The grounds and the views are great. The rooms are very clean. There were a good number of choices for breakfast. I love oatmeal for breakfast and it was thick and tasty. Lots of places to walk and a nice trail and stairs to the beach. The staff were all very friendly. I’ve stayed there several times now and i plan to return on my next trip to Pismo.
