We stayed at the Twin Dolphin Inn over the Thanksgiving Holiday Weeekend. The Inn is a 3 Story Building about 2 blocks from the embarcadero. Our room had a lovely view of Morro Rock and the Bay from the balcony. The bed is fairly comfortable. Rooms were well appointed. There is plenty of parking in the garage. The only drawbacks of this place is that the bed linen are old and dated and really need to be updated. and the spa is in a terrible location. While in the spa you feel like you are a fish in an aquarium.

Room was larger than expected and appeared clean, but there was an odd odor, sort of like "cat" but I think the place is pet-free so it was probably something else.

Rules very restrictive, ie., late check-in discouraged because management goes to bed, hours of jacuzzi limited to 4-9:30 p.m., and children not allowed to access any child-oriented sites on the shared computer even with parental supervision. Breakfast is mediocre continental fare. Coffee like water and Sunny Delight instead of OJ. Pillows flat as a pancake but at least there were several extra in the drawers so you could double or even triple up.

The place is exceptionally convenient to the Embarcadero and Main St. shopping, and the parking garage had ample spaces. If you have to stay here due to last minute plans as I did, it is not unpleasant. However, for what you have to pay to stay here in the off-season (which is not cheap), I would expect more pleasant service and nicer amenities. I would try another hotel next time. The Ascot suites down the street looked much more upscale and the rates not that much higher.. However, I think they book up pretty quickly on weekends.

On my way between San Francisco and Los Angeles, I choosed to stay a night in Morro Bay with my girlfriend. We where really amazed about the friendliness in the staff, we really feelt very welcome at this hotel. Even the price was a bit high, and the room was without wireless internet, it was a good place to stay even all. It was in walking distance to the bay where you can do lot of activites.

So if you would need a quiet rest or a good hotel for your vacation, this hotel is good because of the friendly staff members. They are just perfect!
