Some complaints about barking dogs in pet friendly wing
The 158-room SeaCrest Oceanfront Hotel is a retro oceanfront property with a big outdoor pool and three hot tubs. Geared towards families and couples, this Pismo Beach hotel is affordable, but does not have amenities -- such as room service or a fitness center -- that some guests might expect. Rooms are spacious and nicely decorated and some rooms have ocean views and terraces. The hotel is pet-friendly, but some guests complain about barking dogs in the pet friendly wing.
Scene
Oceanfront, spacious getaway
The SeaCrest Oceanfront Hotel is a mellow, relaxed hotel overlooking the ocean. The lobby is partially open-air with a shaded terrace and ample lounge space. The decor is retro and the crashing ocean surf can be heard throughout the property.
Location
Directly off the 101 in Pismo Beach
The SeaCrest Oceanfront Hotel has a quiet, oceanfront location that is also near restaurants and other hotels. A lovely stretch of beach is reached via several dozen steps from the pool. Guests are more likely to hear crashing waves than honking horns at this serene property. Downtown Pismo Beach is a short distance away.
