The place was wonderful! The room was well appointed. Plenty of room to store luggage. However they were having issues with the coffee maker and the coffee in the thermos was just warm not hot. Otherwise everything was fantastic!

Great Location
Stopped to stay one night here in our drive back home to Northern CA. We live to stay in Pismo and this was our first time at Inn at the Cove. We lived our ocean view room AND the comfy bed. This place is awesome! It offers a great breakfast and wine tasting in the afternoon. The staff are very friendly too! I lived the walkway along the cliffs overlooking the beach below.

Loved it!
First time there. Loved our Ocean Front room. Slightly disappointing was the small breakfast eating area. Also, I told the staff lady that the oatmeal was gone and she didn’t do anything about it. Other than that… great stay!

My favorite hotel in the central coast.
One of my favorite place to stay in central coast. Great staff, amazing views. The rooms are always clean, spacious and the bed is comfortable. Big shoutout to the Housekeeping team. Free breakfast,free parking, it is so rare to found those free amenities. I’ve been in this hotel 8 times and l never been disappointed. Keep the good work. Can’t wait for my next trip to Pismo.
