My room was spacious and nicely decorated, featuring an oceanfront view that was absolutely stunning. The balcony was a perfect spot for relaxing and enjoying the sunsets. However, I found the shower to be quite small compared to the rest of the room's spaciousness.

Located on the bluffs with views that face the ocean, it was a gorgeous escape away from the hustle of downtown Pismo. I enjoyed walking along the bluffs and appreciated the proximity to local attractions while still feeling secluded.

The breakfast had plenty of options-like waffles, eggs, and fruits-however, I did find some items not as fresh as I hoped. It would be great if they could improve the quality of eggs served.

The hotel offered great amenities, including a heated pool and hot tub. I especially enjoyed the cozy fire pits overlooking the ocean. However, raising the pool umbrellas was a bit challenging without assistance.

I had a great time at the Inn at the Cove! The views from my oceanfront room were simply amazing, making my mornings even more special. The staff was super friendly and truly went out of their way to help with local tips. However, I found the bed a bit too firm for my liking and the room doors let in some noise, which was a bit distracting at times.

My room was clean and modern with comfy furnishings and binoculars for spotting marine life. The balcony was perfect for chilling while taking in the ocean views, but I wish the bed had been a little softer for a better night's sleep.

The hotel's location was excellent, offering easy access to the beach and nearby attractions like wineries and parks. I loved being able to enjoy the tranquility while still being just a short drive away from Pismo Beach's attractions.

While I appreciated the complimentary breakfast and the variety of options available, I thought it could benefit from more variety. There were good hot options like scrambled eggs, but I would have loved to see more choices that cater to different dietary preferences.

The grounds were beautifully landscaped and offered many cozy outdoor spaces like swings and fire pits, which made for a relaxing atmosphere. However, I experienced some minor issues with my refrigerator being a bit noisy at night, but it didn't significantly affect my experience.

The Inn at the Cove boasts amazing ocean views and a peaceful atmosphere, making it ideal for a relaxing getaway. However, I found the room amenities somewhat dated, and the breakfast was just average compared to expectations. Overall, it was a lovely stay, but there were aspects that could be improved for a more upscale experience.
