pleased to stay at blue seal inn always, best supervisor ever him & his wife are always very polite.

every time we go to pismo this is where we stay been staying here since i was young. the location is perfect walking distance to the beach to the town and to the stores nearby it is our favorite place to stay and will continue to be.

we don't like that they closed the pool down :( hopefully they bring it back one day soon. and the ice machine as well its very much needed. also, sometimes we have to ask for a microwave to be put in the room its included but some rooms don't have them all the time.

Comfortable and affordable and convenient

I love staying at the Blue Seal we always stay in the family suites very clean and staff are excellent very nice and helpful. The pier and downtown to shops is a couple blocks so walking is convenient. We love it and will be back to stay. We come from Bakersfield so yes it's a drive there but so worth it when we get there. Very comfortable and affordable stay

Nothing I liked everything

1.0 / 10.0

The worst stay I’ve ever had, cockroaches in the bed, filthy room, horrible management.

Location

Found a COCKROACH in my bed on the 2nd night, told management and they did not once apologize once but only inform me that there’s no refunds. The management was so incredibly rude, I am pregnant and left at 10pm to drive 5 hours back home instead of staying another night because it was such a horrible experience. The room was very dirty, holes in the wall, looks like black mold in the bathroom. The front office stays locked up, you have to use a ring doorbell to get staff to come. They didn’t come when I rang it, so I had to call the phone number twice and was standing outside for like 5 minutes before even being checked in.

Good location, decent price

Location was great, had car troubles and was forced to walk for a couple days but this place was right by the beach and everything else we needed was relatively close. Came in in the middle of the night needing a room asap and the owner gave me a pretty good deal, if im ever back in pismo beach ill probably stay here again.

No hanging door signs or anything to let cleaners know were gone or needed cleaning, so we came back for night 2 and it was still messy, that was the only complaint i guess.

4.0 / 10.0

Disappointed in the room.

Friendly and efficient person at check-in.

The main problem was that I couldn't use the shower because the shower rod had fallen down and I couldn't get it to remain in place.

Nothing

Property was very dirty. staff were rude

6.0 / 10.0

What mattered is that we had a bed to sleep in.

I liked that it was within one mile of downtown Pismo.

I didn’t like that the room looked like it was under renovations. There was a 2 foot long break in our hotel window. It looked like it had just been painted, in a hurry. The toilet wouldn’t flush. The smoke detector was stuffed in a drawer. I believe there was some false advertisement; the “fast” WiFi, the pool which was empty, and the “HBO” tv. It takes risking a stay at this hotel, to experience something like this.

Decent motel for a last minute, quick overnighter

Conveniently located near downtown and beach. No frills motel so don't expect anything more than very, very basic. Floors felt dirty so used a towel to walk on after showering. Friendly staff at check in.

Compared to other motels in the area and for condition of building/rooms, the rate could be better. However, as I was checking in, another couple ahead of me wanted to extend their stay and their rate was about $60 more than what I paid online so that made me feel a little better.

2.0 / 10.0

It’s worth it to pay more and stay somewhere else.

It was close to downtown and the beach

It took the front desk worker 4 bell rings and 3 HELLO?s to finally come out from behind the door to check me in. There was an enormous box of a bed frame left in our room. The bathroom was worn. There was a drunk guy that yelled “LETS GO” to his girlfriend all throughout the night.

5.0 / 10.0

This should have been priced like motel 8, but was priced like a Hilton

Staff was friendly and helpful timely

Small, old, uncomfortable bed, shower looked horrible with all the repairs/needs replacing. Overall the room needs to be upgraded.

You don’t get much now a days for the price you pay.

Room was clean and the bed was “dream me” like sleeping on a cloud. I did like the mattress very much.

Room was not ready when we arrived had to wait 30 minutes before getting my room. I had a table in my room but no chairs. I had no cups in my room to get even a drink of water from the faucet.

5.0 / 10.0

Location was good, room was disappointing for price.

It was close to walk to where ever we wanted.

The AC did not work, the sheets did not fit the bed your feet are laying on the bare mattress, holes in the comforter, smoke alarm was in the bed side table, side table was broken, holes in lamp shades, we had the end room so we heard all the traffic all night, no curtains just wood blinds so the light came through. The TV did not have very many channels, no screens on the window in the bathroom. Very disappointed 😞

1.0 / 10.0

This was a terrible experience

The staff did not answer the phone and closed the office so they were I reachable when an emergency situation occurred on site. I would recommend to future travelers to not stay there due to safety concerns with other guests and the lack of communication/ help from the staff.

Blue Seal Inn. Pismo Beach Ca. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.

Really, just the location.

The manager was inconsiderate and rude,We asked for a microwave and never got one. He doesn't do anything about noise complaints. He told me that when outside the room to talk quietly and this was at 8pm BUT the people above us could run jump, move things around stomp on their floor which was right above our room at 2:20 in the morning?? No smoke detectors in the room, and we had to pull very hard to open and close the door which I feel is a major fire hazard, Nah, I won't be going back very UNHAPPY costomer..

1.0 / 10.0

I have never stayed at a motel as dirty and poorly ran as this one.

We stayed in Pismo Beach, The beach was beautiful and within walking distance, the mattress was adequate and fairly comfortable. They had wifi which worked okay

The bathroom was dirty, tub had stains, the toliet seat was worn out with white coloring rubbed off, there was no holder for the toliet paper, no fan in the bathroom, floors were filthy with hair , scum in the floor corners, dust and hair under the furniture. no one brought towels, we had to ask for a broom to sweep the floors, no one changed the sheets, tidied the room or emptied the trash can. They advertised a microwave and table to sit at- there was neither. There was an exposed electrical outlet circuit on the ceiling and an exposed loose receptacle outlet with no cover. The walls had scuff marks, dirty marks and plastered areas that had not been painted and was multiiple colors. There were no curtains to stop the bright porch light from shining in all night through the shutters and the pool was empty. They provided no complimentary coffee, hairdryer or any other extras that most motels provide. They added excessive service charges and provided no service at all. We had paid online for 3 nights and there was a no refund.
