We enjoyed our stay. The room was very clean and well cared for. The owner was always working on the Inn while we were staying. She always asked how things were and was helpful. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Adorable clean and comfy. Very hospitable owners. This is like the motels of old. Can be noisy in am because you hear the cars coming and going in the parking lot. Not ritzy.....just a great little motel. Mazel tov.

I stayed in 2010, but just remembered to leave a review - the place is run by a Taiwanese family who were really kind - they told us where to eat, and were also very warm and friendly. The hostess is a Taiwanese mother of 4, and she's VERY, VERY CLEAN! I am usually very particular about hotels and don't... More

We stayed one night in Morro Bay end of April. It seems to be a holiday destination but at that time the year it was very quiet. The Sundown Inn is run by the owners, a nice couple that really care that customers are happy. The night started very well until the guest next door went in. There were very... More

Been staying here as my first choice for years. The rooms are always clean and the rates offered are a real value. The rooms are modest but offer microwave and refrig with a coffee maker. WiFi is a big plus.No spa. No fountains. No room service...just an ice machine. and great location. Give 'em a try.

My mom and I actually came here twice last year and it was a great value, clean rooms, a very clean bathroom (which are hard to come by) and a small fridge that worked well. Only downside is its not very close to the beach, but not many of the hotels are. On our first night of our second stay... More

We were traveling through Morro Bay and reserved a room at the Sundown Inn based on the positive TripAdvisor reviews. We got a special online rate of $50/night so our expectations weren't too high. THE PLACE IS FANTASTIC! Friendly, on-site owners made us feel welcome. The rooms were so clean you could eat off the floor--and the owners had opened... More

It did not feel like we were in a motel. We felt more like we were in a bed and breakfast. The neat decorations, special touches such as real coffee cups, etc. made this a very enjoyable stay. The owners were very nice and did their best to please and assist us.

Clean, Quiet, Safe, Comfortable with old fashioned charm. This is a small collection of motel rooms, one story, sort of cabin feeling with country decor. It is in the neighborhood side of town away from noise. Good location. We take the stairs next to Dorns Resataurant (about 3 blocks away) down to the Embarcadero waterfront. The price was a little...

This inn might be old, but it is very clean and cheap in comparison to other hotels. It comes with free internet and cable tv. The lady boss is very friendly and helpful and told us she has been running the inn for 30 years. Gave us a free upgrade to King bed, seeing that we have a baby with... More
