Location. Price. Comfortable bed.
Wasn't anything we didn't like
9.0 / 10.0
The room was renovated and very cute. The bathroom was very comfortable. The guest comfort was an obvious priority in this hotel. Parking and loading was easy and quick. Loved the easy check in.
Our king bed as a little tilted on one side, however it was extremely comfortable. There was also a very loud guest in the middle of the night, which of course could happen anywhere.

We loved the feel of The Shell Beach Inn; I believe they renovated it in 2009, and they did a great job! It’s cute, comfortable, close to everything Pismo, and a short drive to SLO. They were very friendly & helpful during check-in & check-out; we would stay here again.
No complaints; everything was good.

there was lots of room, the inn was well designed, the ammenities provided were expansive
there was no direct overhead lighting which made it dark in the room, with no obvious way to put up the blinds

Absolutely loved everything. Especially the little record player, records, beautiful decor and attention to detail. It was perfect. It felt like home away from home wish we could have stayed longer
Only wish there was a jacuzzi.

Loved the charm and coziness of the room
Our room was right on the street, would have liked to be a little more tucked inside

The location was perfect. It was a short walk to the cliffs overlooking the ocean. The Shell Beach Inn is located sort of at the end of the strip and was quiet. Earplugs were provided and I thought that was a nice touch and very thoughtful of light sleepers. The bed was comfortable, the sheets were soft, the decor was very nicer than your average room, ice was provided in a tiny ice chest, the towels were big and fluffy. We checked in later in the evening and lighting was sufficient. The host made it a simple check-in via phone.
The room was a bit small, so if there are more than two people in the room it would be a bit crowded. However, it was perfect for just two people. The only thing that could be improved is the shower water pressure and fixtures in the shower. Although, this would not have prevented me from staying at this Inn.

was forced into purchasing a room at this motel and was not able to get out of it. This was not the Motel that we requested. we clicked on the motel we wanted to stay at and paid and they sent us a confirmation for a totally different Motel so we had to pay for two motels that night .

Very charming, cosy place to stay with a rustic/retro vibe. It’s clear they have thought about your needs and have put a lot of care into making it comfortable and welcoming for guests. A quick walk got us delicious Mexican food at Zorro’s, and the ocean is also easily reached on foot.
It’s located along the 101 where you won’t get a great view and will hear traffic - not a complaint because it was to be expected. They kindly provide ear plugs on your bedside tables should you require.

it was a very spacious room, and although the location was in the center of everything pismo, it was a very quiet space and nice location to bring a boyfriend or a girlfriend maybe even a husband or wife for a weekend‘s stay. I will definitely be coming back. I will definitely recommend.

Beautiful compact room. Very well presented, super soft bedding and great mattress. Good location and pretty quiet for being on the main road.
Would be nice to have a blackout blind and perhaps a little smaller bed than expected, but those are tiny nitpicks on a very nice room.
