The photos do not do this place justice. It has been a while since I have stayed in a room this spacious. We were upgraded to a room with a view of the 'rock'. Management was more than kind. Great value and in easy walking distance of everything. Will definitely stay there again.

This hotel looked very clean inside, most likely because it was recently remodeled. My room (including bathroom) was spacious, and it included a TV, DVD, small fridge, and a microwave. Please be aware that there is literally no view worth paying for. My room faced a house under construction, and with some effort I could only see a thin stretch of water, above some roofs. The Jacuzzi was a bit dirty and the suroundings of the hotel rather deprressing. I would like to point out that these rooms are worth about $49 per night. I paid $75 for a very cute room in a top-notch location in Paris, and $70 for a small but very clean room in the center of Tokyo. Why would I want to pay $150 for a clean but depressing motel room in Morro Bay.

When I made the reservations over the phone, I was told that my credit card would be charged at that point --- guess what: they lied. When I asked at the office about that the guy try to suggest that I was misstaken. After I inssisted he agreed that they do that to enforce the customers to come --- not a good practice, in my oppinion. Moreover, they are very impolite!

As we were traveling from the San Diego area back to the Bay Area, we decided to break our drive up over two days. On June 17, I was scrambling on the phone looking for a place to stay on the coast for the night. The Twin Dolphins Inn in Morro Bay, CA had one room left so I made a reservation for that night

We arrived around 11:00PM and the hotel manager made prior arrangements to leave the room key in a safe place because the desk closes at 10:00PM. The hotel is nice, newish and clean (much better in person than the photos). The room and bathroom was nice and spacious. The bath we had didn’t have a tub, but it had a great shower. To our surprise, the room had a mini fridge and microwave. It was perfect for us because we had perishable food we thought we would have to throw away. The TV and DVD player was in good working order.

The bed was comfortable, but had the typical flat pillows, but we slept pretty well after a long drive. The breakfast was the typical bagels, bread, juice – all the food, I cannot eat, but the fridge and microwave allowed me to eat the way I need to w/o having to spend the extra money someplace else. The in room coffee was below average, but there is a cool espresso/coffeehouse a block or two away. The ceilings are pretty thin; we slept on the second floor and heard activity and footsteps from the third that morning.

Upon checkout, the front desk manager was pleasant and cheerful. He even allowed us to checkout an hour later (after calling to check).

Overall, the experience was pleasant, it was a good value and I wouldn’t might staying there again.
