As other's have said, Grace, the innkeeper, is fabulous. She runs a great little inn here. It is a motel, so don't go expecting things like an elevator, room service, or help with your bags.
What can you expect? A wonderful innkeeper in Grace. An extremely clean motel, one of the cleanest I have been in and the cleanest 2.5 property I have ever stayed at. Many little ammenities in your room such as coffee pods of all kinds, all sorts of paper products such as cups and plates. Fans in the room (no A/C) both ceiling and table top. (So many places don't keep one, let alone two, in a room...I always have one in my suitcase!). And ice and water machine in the common area. The list goes on and on so I won't keep listing all the little goodies.
The bowl of chocolates was wonderful! Thank you Grace.
Now about the location: perfect access to the beach which is on the same block as the motel. We walked to dinner, breakfast, the billards hall, to the pier, and all around downtown Pismo. Because it is in downtown, expecting a bussling scene during the day and into the evening. Lots of people are there to get to the beach, so it is typical beachtown traffic. My advice is once there, stay there unless you're going for days and want to see the entire area.
Enjoy your stay at the Beachcomber Inn, you won't regret it!
And again, thank you Grace! We look forward to a return trip soon!
