This motel is right on the front with a good view of Morro Rock. However, that also means it is next door to the nuclear power station - which emits a low 'humming sound' at all times (you are aware of it, but it is not particularly annoying.) It was fairly pleasant and a bit quirky - a change from... More

We just returned from a relaxing and fun weekend. It was our second stay at this wonderful place. Dog friendly, over the top clean and comfortable. Service with a capital S! If you like to be on the ocean, near paths, restaurants and shops, you couldn't do better. Its quiet and I feel so safe when we are there. We... More

Stayed here one night on the way up the west coast. A very pleasant fishing village - seals in the bay etc. Hotel was clean, room very small but priced accordingly. Good service and very pleasant staff. Great value, great location - I would recommend this for an overnight visit More

First off, we stayed in room 20, and it was plenty big enough for two adult men. The in-room Jacuzzi was great, and everything was clean and working. I also looked in to a few other rooms as they were being cleaned, and they looked fine too. I'm not sure where all the "rooms too small" comments are coming from.... More

We stayed at the Bayfront Inn with our two small doggies over Thanksgiving and had a wonderful stay. This hotel could teach some big hotels the word service. They offer so much. For the doggies there were treats and a blanket on the bed and doggie bowls in the bathroom. They offer us lots of goodies also. Free Wifi, flat... More

The rooms are small and a little dated but that is to be expected of an older place right by the water. The service was a little off - there wasn't anyone to greet us nor did anyone answer the phone when we called for service and we had to wait for about 15 minutes before anyone came to the... More

Glad you will be coming back. Front Desk staff helps with laundry, washing rugs prior to guest arrival, and inspecting rooms prior to when we allow guests to check in. We are a small independent hotel and staff has to multitask. If front desk staff is not at the front desk, that's what they are doing...and if we don't hear... More

Many of the second floor rooms have a great view of the Morro Rock, which is neat for travelers. Service was very warm, and cost is great for a place on the Bay. We travelled with our Malamute, so this pet-friendly place was highly welcome--they even had dog bones on the bed when we checked in! Good restaurants and shopping... More

The Bayfront Inn is great value and the view looks out onto the Rock. We stayed at the Bayfront for one night and were enchanted. It is a short walk to restaurants and shops on the waterfront. We had a queen room which was cosy but we didn't spend much time, except for sleeping, in the room. There was a... More

Nice place with fine room, free snacks, helpful staff, nice sugary breakfast. Morro bay was quite foggy but a good place to stop if you're roadtrippin' highway 1. Note that wine tasting offer closes at 6 pm and most restaurants close kitchen at 8 pm. More

My wife adn I recently stayed at the Bayfront Inn. We were looking for something small, close to the Bay, and we found it. It so happened that it was the weekend of Harpor Festival in Morro Bay, which was directly across the street from the Inn. The people here were wonderful, friendly, and very accomodating, They went out of... More
