Location. Lots of restaurants and bars in the area but not loud, except for the gulls.
The property is split into two halves by Market Ave. There is effectively no WiFi at the rear building (further from the ocean). It's extremely weak so the phone will just cut it off and tell you that it will try again when the signal becomes stronger. I'm not sure what would cause this but the front desk will tell you it's the phone and that you have to dial an 800 number for steps on how to fix it which I forewent. My phone's a Samsung S22 ultra, I don't think it's the phone. I've also never had a hotel tell me that. Edit: Their Wi-Fi is the problem.I did a test and the signal is 100% in the hallway but gets weaker further into the room. They just don't have a good system worked out. If this is important to you then don't stay here.

- Great location in Morro Bay next to Embarcadero and local restaurants! - Cool View on Morro Rock and Embarcadero from the balcony! - Room was clean! - Nice to have multiple mirrors in the room and bathroom! - Room had fridge!
- Main duvet was too hot but there was additional blanket in the room which solved the problem; - Air heater works on gas, it makes noise all the time because small gas lighter is always burning underneath; - Would be nice to have more comfy furniture on the balcony.

The Staff: Melanie was Great, friendly, courteous, organized. The lobby clean and decorated nicely with blue tones & ocean theme, felt inviting and comfy. This is our 2nd time to stay here. The room good size, bathroom clean, bed comfy, view was Awesome thru window, mini fridge, micro & TV worked Good! The parking, plenty of it and some covered. Even tho The Continental breakfast is small, it was tasty. Loved the location of hotel, convenient walk to yummy restaurants, bakery, shops, Nature Path & Beach. The must do is to walk on the path toward the Morro Rock (a Volcano plug), it has beautiful, flowers, nature (sea otters, habitat birds, squirrels, etc), lovely waves crashing on rocks in front of Morro Rock. Before you get to the Rock, the adult Sea Otters are resting in the water among sea weed, benches there so you can watch & take photos. However, signage reminding folks to Please give the Otters their space and not approach them, just watch from afar! The other side of Rock is a nice beach to hang out (sun bathers, surfers & fisherman). Love this little town, We'll definitely be back to stay at least 2 or more days at the Blue Sail Inn!
Had a little mix- up on room upon check in by another staff but it was quickly corrected. The room overall is Great but since our room on the end, I like to open window for fresh air and hear ocean & nature, however when you have window open for rooms on the end, in the morning we heard the cars passing by, construction work, trash truck, etc. Ideal would be room more in middle of building across the street from the main check in office.

I know Morro Bay very well and chose this place on purpose. Including knowing it was close to Dorns .. one if our favorite places . There was a relatively new employee who is doing a great job .. I have been in the Hotel and Hospitality industry for 40+ years.. I requested an upgrade which was a fair price and myself and my sons enjoyed the balcony.. you ought to keep her .. I’m sorry I don’t remember her name.. thank you for the stay! Breakfast was a nice touch!
We were happy.. especially after having had a bad stay at one of my favorite properties in Pismo .. I’ve known the Owner personally 40 years and cannot believe they know what’s happening there.

My mom and I come here every year for my mom's birthday. My family has been here every year for the last 40 years. The sale Lynn is my mother's favorite. It was also my dad's favorite before he passed away. They love the location and the view.
This is the first time we stayed across the street and without a balcony. We pulled into town around 11:30 AM. Was advised check-in is normally at 3 PM, which is fine. However, she said she would call us when our room was ready. She did.

Morro bay was easily our favorite town to stay in on our roadtrip up the PCH. Blue Sail Inn was terrific. We encountered the NICEST staff and the room was awesome. Stepping onto the balcony to overlook the bay and ocean, we were elated to hear some friendly seals as well! (Being from Cleveland, that was a huge highlight to our trip!) location was perfect as every restaurant and shop was within easy walking distance. This is a town I would retire in!

The receptionist was probably the friendliest, kindest one I’ve ever met. The room was spacious and had everything we needed. You cannot beat the location with so much just a short walk away. The parking was good too.
The refrigerator was not emptied out from the previous guests. And there was hair on the bathroom counter. Otherwise everything was good.

The staff at the front desk were awesome. I have a special needs daughter who can be a lot and they were kind and didn't make us feel like we were a nuisance. It was an easy walk to see all the things we wanted to see, without paying a fortune to stay closer to the bay.
I would have loved to have been able to stay in a balcony room but was told they only have king size beds and no roll aways.

Very friendly staff. Ample parking . Lift for easy access with cases . Clean, big rooms . Great location 2 mins from the front . Breakfast was simple and preordered the night before - a basic juice and scone/ cereal bar. Cloudy on the days we stayed here - would definitely recommend Dorn’s for an evening meal on the front and a trip to the cinema 10 minute walk up the road - loved the quaint auditorium with friendly staff . Great location to spot the seals and the many birds - petrol station not far too .
Breakfast was limited but everything else was great

quite, clean, friendly staff, location within walking distance of wharf, shops and restaurants.
was a little disappointed with the view we selected room with partial ocean view and most of the view was the parking lot the partial view was like 1/8 of the ocean , don't think room 121 should listed as partial ocean view when is a greater view of the parking street and building of the patio.
