"THE ORCHID COTTAGE" PETS OK!

10/10 Excellent

"Super fun, we will be back soon. Great location, dog friendly. Loved the quiet neighborhood, close to walking trails."

The Landing at Morro Bay

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our two night stay. The room was clean with a nice mix of unique amenities. The pour over coffee system was artsy and functional. Since it was unseasonably hot it was great to have an ac unit. The only shortcut I noticed with housekeeping was the short sheeting of the second queen bed. This is minor and wouldn’t prevent me from staying again. Lastly, super chill outdoor sitting area was a nice touch."
