La Serena is a three floor hotel. Not all floors afford a view. We chose a room on the 3rd floor with a perfect window facing the rock. This is a must have if you are going to Morro Bay. (Elevator, outside stairs and indoor stair available. Covered parking- have breakfast there- included; or walk two blocks to Carla's Cafe... More

La Serena Inn was a great place to stay during the recent New Year's Eve weekend. Good restaurants within walking distance was a bonus.It was disappointing that I had requested a temper-pedic bed and was not given a room with that type of bed. The mattress that we did sleep on was old and mushy and the sheets were old. More

I just returned from a second three-night stay at La Serena. My stay there a year ago was such a success, that when I learned I'd be returning to the Morro Bay area I booked at La Serena without even considering other hotels there, and there are plenty to choose from. La Serena is small, with friendly staff, and large,... More

There is also transferred noise from other rooms inside the hotel and outside from the alley/road behind the Hotel. Otherwise a fantastic location with easy parking close to the shops, restaurants and waterfront. We got very good front desk service and... More

We stopped here overnight during a trip down Hwy 1 and booked through Expedia on the day. We paid slightly more than the other chain motels but enjoyed staying somewhere more individual with a friendly feel. The young lady on the front desk was delightful and we shared a laugh as we checked in. She gave us advice about where... More
