Clean room, easy check-in and check-out process. Pet friendly and convenient location walking distance to restaurants, shopping and beach. Also easy freeway access.
Clean and charming. Walkable to restaurants, breweries, and the pier. Staff was pleasant and easy to get ahold of via text. A good value for the price.
I had an absolutely amazing stay here! So pleasantly surprised with the price. Clean and cute room. Family ran! Close to shops and sweet things by the sea! I would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat. Quiet as well!!!
Ocean palms 🌴 is an excellent place to stay,,the manager was above and beyond our expectations,,this motel has been our go to place every time we visit Pismo beach,,the patio area is fantastic and the rooms were very comfortable,,also the downtown area and pier are a very short walk away,,thanks Ocean Palms especially the manager for making our stay a beautiful experience 😀
Was perfect overnight stay for us with a dog. Although we could not spend time in the common outdoor lounge/picnic area, it was very nice. Bed was comfortable. There was even a small refrigerator and microwave that was convenient.
The only small issue I had was with some plumbing smell from the bathroom, it was minor issue but would be nice if it is fixed.
Property was well maintained, room had plenty of space, comfortable bed and linens. Walkable location to beach, pier, restaurants etc.
Friendly front desk staff too. Would stay here again.
I really like this the place.
Clean is an understatement.
Staff is super friendly.
Nice covered seating area, with a fire pit.
Convenient to excellent restaurants, and a local market just up the street.
Cant go wrong.
We've stayed two years in row, and am already planning a third.
Motel is conveniently located. Walking distance to the beach, restaurants snd bars. Rooms are clean and service is excellent. Nothing fancy but clean affordable and practical. I’ve stayed here multiple times and plan on it the next time I go to Pismo.
We had a great stay the hotel was close to restaurants, bars, and of course the beach. Parking was safe and plenty of room. The hotel room was nice, updated and very clean. The outside lounge area we used was very cool to hang out and even had outlets for your phone and a nice fire ring. We will stay again!!
If you need a clean affordable place to stay, this is it. Walking to beach area, dining and feels safe. There is no fancy stuff here. A/C was a bit noisy but we lived with it. 1 and a half rolls of toilet paper was barely enough for a one night stay, bathrooms were clean. I'll be back for a quick stay.
