The attendant removed the rights to the key card prior to check out time. We had to enter again and instead of giving us a new key or reprogramming the key cards we had, he had a person open the door for us.
Great location, nice, quaint room, clean, could hear the ocean. Right next to pier and beach. A perfect beach vacation motel. My ONLY complaint is the bed in my room had a wood platform frame that stuck out and inch or two farther than the mattress. The bedspread hung over it and I kept walking by the bed and smacking my legs into the sharp corner of the bed. Highly suggest hiring a handyman to cut off said overhang so the mattress is wider than the platform so that that doesn't happen. Other than that, it was a fantastic stay!
We always stay at Dolphin Cove when we come to Pismo. The location is as good as it gets, check in/out is super quick and simple, hands down the best hotel in Pismo. Don’t let a negative review from some Karen persuade you.
