"It is newly renovated and the furnishings are excellent. The location is little dated, but so is practically all of Morro Bay. two sided chair is smart, good ambient lighting, excellent bath. No other frills like breakfast etc. Only con is stairs only to 3rd floor. I had a bad ankle from running, so the staff changed my room from 3rd to 1st floor. Very accomodating."

"Had a nice stay at the Avalon. Close to the bay it was nice to walk down ti the shops and restaurants. Room was clean, nice and comfortable. Only issue we had was that there hardly was any water pressure and the first night the tub wasn't draining when we showered. It seemed to be fine the next night though. Overall can't wait to visit again and stay here"
