My dad and I took a trip to Morro Bay the week prior to Memorial Day weekend and stayed at the Best Western Plus San Marcos Inn. We had a room with a view on the third floor, something I really recommend. We spent a lot of time sitting out on the balcony enjoying the view of the ROCK as... More

We'd often seen this motel while staying in Morro Bay previously and been taken with the balcony rooms overlooking the rock. So this year we decided to give it a try with a four night booking. Our first night was spent in a courtyard room because there was no seaview availablity. However the remaining days were spent in a seaview... More

This place is obviously well managed with excellent staff, maid service and general maintenance and condition of the property. Great location in Morro Bay. All the folks at the front desk were helpful, friendly and efficient. Thanks Michael for bringing us extra pillows and Kasarah at check in. Breakfast was more than expected and a nice little wine and cheese... More

We stayed here for 1 night was part of our mini honeymoon road trip down the coast of California. Not being frequent Best Western patrons, we joked about what the "Plus" meant.

We stayed for a week at this hotel enjoying the quiet beach town, hiking and kayaking. We were on the 3rd floor with a balcony, beautiful view of Morro Rock and lovely sunsets - well worth the upgrade! The hotel was clean and very well kept up for an older property. I particularly liked the interior corridor architecture. Unfortunately the... More
