The BeachComber is a hidden gem right in plain sight. Located walking distance to the beach and downtown area shopping and the pier . The beds were very comfortable and the rooms are cozy and very clean . Are room included a small kitchen area with microwave and refrigerator very nice for leftovers. Nice tv and fireplace for relaxing at the end of the day. I have to say they have the softest bath towels I have ever used .

Location is perfect: 5 mins walk to beach and pier, restaurants in short walking distance. Free parking - always found a spot, very close ro room. Our oom was cozy and absolutely clean, bathroom as well. It was perfectly prepared, we found anything we needed including tee and coffee. The weather was chilly, good that the room heater worked perfectly. Our host, John, cared for us like a mother. He kept asking if he can do us a favor, he gave good recommendations for breakfast and dinner restaurants, he even knew every golf course in the area. Whenever we'll come back to Pismo Beach we will stay here again - highly recommendable.

Outstanding experience here at the BeachComber. Stayed here Two nights. Amazing location, walking distance to all that Pismo has to offer. Very clean rooms, nice hardwood floors and tiled bathrooms. Shout out to Johnny (hotel manager). Thank you so much for your top notch service. We’ll definitely be coming back!

I spent two nights at the Inn. My experience from the time I checked in until I checked out was excellent. The manager is not only on the property he lets you know if your room needs anything me is available to assist you. The rooms are very well furnished. I was surprised at all the amenities that had been thought of to make your stay perfect. The walk to the beach and pier is very short. It’s also great to have the private parking on the property. I’m very big on the cleanliness of a room. I usually clean my room once I check in. The room I received at the Inn was spotless. I am very impressed with this property and the manager on site.

This is not some cheap beach town motel. The price is incredible for the quality you get here. The bed is incredibly comfortable and better than a 5 star hotel. The furniture looks like a very cute and quaint bed and breakfast. They even have a small fireplace electric/gas heater that is adorable. Bathroom is super clean and modern. The staff that was working was also super friendly and very helpful in our stay here. I would give this place 5 stars accross the board. Their ice machine and water fountain is also a major win to help for us dehydrated individuals who drink water like a fish.

This little place turned out to be the best decision!! If you’re going to the beach, the location is amazing. It’s a block from the pier, so no need to look for parking and no sand getting in your car afterwards. The rooms are very clean and updated and have tons of extras, including filtered drinking water, liquid hand soap (and bar, if you like), paper plates and utensils, step stool for kids, laundry basket, lap desk, lots of cupboard/drawer space, separate kitchen sink, super fast internet, and even a candy bowl. You get a covered parking space too. The only con for us was that the bed, while comfy, was noisy getting in and out. And Grace, the proprietor, was very kind and willing to help us with whatever! Definitely recommend!

This is a nice, small Inn in the middle of Downtown Pismo Beach. It is walking distance from the beach and all of the downtown activities. I stayed in a room with a King bed. It was spacious, very clean and had a coffee maker,microwave and mini fridge. The Innkeeper was very kindly and accommodating.

The room itself is nice. Great location. Comfy bed. All the little knickknacks you need. I was just surprised with all the reviews that no one mentioned that there’s no air conditioning in the rooms, at least in Room 1 there isn’t. Parking can be a bit tight also
