What a pleasant surprise! The hotel may not look like much on the outside, but the rooms are great. They have been updated with laminate flooring, bathroom has a very nice shower, and the bed was very comfortable. The location is great, just 5 min drive or 20 min walk to Grover Beach. The staff is wonderful!

To no fault of the American Inn, there is a lot of road construction going on and some streets blocked off. However, we did not hear any of the construction noise.

It was easy to find and it was clean, comfortable and a pleasant place to stop.

All good really

We came in after dark on Amtrak, so this was a few streets over from the station and a nice place to sleep overnight before heading up to Pismo Beach on the walking path near the beach. The room was great for the price. It seems like it was recently updated so no complaints from me. I booked it a few days before and everything worked out.

The staff was very friendly and the room was clean and quiet. Walk-in shower was a plus. Location is very close to the outlets and restaurants/shopping. Also very close to the monarch butterfly preserve.

The WiFi was terrible. Better off not using it, but at least cell reception there was excellent so that made up for it somewhat. If you need wifi on your trip, you’ll probably want to stay somewhere else.

This property is under new ownership and they're doing an excellent job updating the rooms. We loved everything. On the outside, it doesn't look great, but the rooms are actually quite esome huge shower. We were extra pleased to find a microwave and mini fridge also. Added bonus, the owner was fantastic, welcoming and friendly.

There wasn't really anything we didn't like. Just suggested coffee pots for the rooms to be perfect, which we were told were already planned for.

The room was clean and comfortable Staff was very friendly, with a great location

Need more than 1 coffee creamer and sugar and need to put insulated/ cups for coffee I had to use a plastic cup.

Property was very clean. I had no problem staying here. The staff here is very kind. Really enjoyed staying here & I definitely plan on coming back.

No issue.

The family staff who operate The American Inn are kind, hospitable and overall very good people. The room was clean and offered all the basic comforts you would need on.a stay. I would highly recommend it.

basketball hoop in the drive which was awesome. host was incredibly friendly and gave us advice on where to go and what to do as we are tourists, very approachable and easy to check in and out.

This hotel was maybe the best that we ever had for this price… design of the room was very nice, furniture looked like brand new. Everything was beautifully cleaned. Staff was also really nice and friendly.

kinda noisy
