Always happy to stay at La Serena. The only concerning issue is the check in's seem to be getting later and later. Check in is not until 4PM. they charge you for a full day, but you really only get a late afternoon/evening on the first day.

Was not acknowledged by person at desk. Finished typing or whatever before greeting me. It was probably only 3-4 minutes but all they had to do was say “hi” or “be with you in a minute”

It was wonderful to open the sliding glass door to let fresh air in & watch the fog glide in toward me. Continental breakfast was basic, good coffee. Spacious hallways, room had 2 sinks, desk with 2 chairs & good lighting.

Our standard room with a king bed was large. We liked the fact that there were two wash basins. We enjoyed the bird posters and prints. The breakfast was okay, though the coffee was too weak. The hotel was quiet and there was sufficient off-street parking. We could walk to restaurants and coffee shops. We'd stay here again.

Good getaway
I don’t write many reviews.Hotel was very clean. The mattress was not very comfortable. It was all springs. We rented 2 rooms in our group and all 4 bedrooms had all the same type of mattresses.

Nice rooms liked the fact that there were full size bath amenities to use, not to take. Quiet. Breakfast was good. Make your own waffles and other morning food stuff. The only problem was when we were ready to check out, no one was at the front office to get a printout of the bill.

This property is in an ideal location. Half a block from the Morro Bay main strip (on the water) and 500 yards from restaurants and lounges on Main St. This property as of this review, has been newly remodeled, so everything is extremely clean and tidy. We visited on Labor Day weekend, so it took a little longer to check in, otherwise, this is our new go to property!
