"We spent two nights at Estero Inn and very much enjoyed our relaxing stay. The Inn is very clean and right on the water, next to a Sailing School. We enjoyed watching the youth in their sail boats learning how to sail. It is very close to shopping and restaurants but separate enough that it was very quiet. And I love that is has a Tesla charger!"

Top The Giant Chessboard Hotel Reviews

The Q Inn

The Q Inn

10/10 Excellent
"What a hidden gem in Morro Bay! The Q Inn is unlike anywhere we've stayed before. I loved learning that the property is a beautifully restored WWII Quonset hut—such a unique piece of history. The room was spotless and beautifully designed with soaring curved ceilings, warm wood floors, modern finishes, and an incredibly comfortable bed. The bathroom felt luxurious with the walk-in shower and upscale touches. We didnt get to use it but our private patio with a fire table was such a nice bonus. Everything felt fresh, thoughtfully designed, and well maintained. The staff was welcoming, and it's obvious they've put a lot of care into preserving the building while creating a comfortable, boutique hotel experience. If you're looking for something different from the typical chain hotel, The Q Inn is absolutely worth it. We'd definitely stay here again! 10/10 — clean, quiet, unique, and full of character."
