Charming hotel near downtown Morro Bay. In particular we enjoyed the artistic ambiance, the friendly staff, the spa, and the views of the surrounding hills.

I love the Masterpiece and have stayed here often. The heated spa pool is lovely. The staff is always great and super friendly. The breakfast included in the stay has changed (used to include the self serve waffle maker) but still a valuable inclusion in the cost of the stay. I will continue to book here when in the area!

Friendly staff, with the hotel, grounds, and the room in great condition. Kept the staff informed as I was arriving later in the evening.
Did not have a chance to check out the other amenities of the hotel, maybe next time.
The only complaint was that the breakfast sandwich tasted a bit strange. Would be nice if there were more food choices.
Will consider staying at the Masterpieces Hotel the next time I am in Morro Bay.

The building is older and the room could use a fresh coat of paint with updated carpet. We could not get the heater to work and the refrigerator was super loud and kept waking us through the night. Staff friendly. Breakfast was minimal and not appealing. Good location to downtown. Mattress was old and too soft.
