Ascot Inn at the Rock

Very Nice.

Jul 11th, 2020

We had a very nice stay in a very nice room. It was an accessible room with a partial bay view. It was clean and roomy, everything worked, it was close to the water. The wife said the tub was fantastic. The bed was fine. We didn't use A.C. because we slept with the balcony door open. TRIPADVISOR.COM USER 

Room 215

May 23rd, 2020

I was there May 16,17th 2020 and paid (total) around 117.00. Reason why I picked this location was due their fireplace in the room and their breakfast. To my surprise their WASN'T no breakfast, i guess due to covid-19. Fireplace has a switch that you're suppose to switch to turn, which didn't work. Front desk stated ( after I called ) that they would've to come and turn it on manually, back around 7ish or so, no one was @ the front desk. Here is a kicker, one microwave in the hallway for the whole 2nd floor. I'm an avid traveler and have NEVER seen that before. One thing they did do for us,was grant our request with a room that had an ocean view, not to mention that their rooms are OUTDATED with wall paper, their were a few other things, we didnt like. My friend told me to take photo's, I thought about it, but I didnt. Oh yeah, the young girl (worked the front desk) was nice TRIPADVISOR.COM USER

Would NOT stay

Mar 5th, 2020

March 4,2020 arrival for bday. Had (2) different reservations but Did NOT stay after paying, checking in and NOT being informed on website nor in person that my room was on 2nd floor which was having over 3/4 of all rooms currently being painted and being renovated. After maneuvering my way across tarps, dirty elevator and STRONG paint fumes I arrived at the VERY LAST room on the corridor (my suite, which is totally misrepresented) Dark, dank, cramped with the sofa sleeper almost in the fireplace. Bath tub rust stains. Dingy wrinkled throw tossed over sofa. Limited parking on site. No front desk after 10:00pm and no one answering the phone either. After explaining to Amanda and other front desk personnel reason I could NOT stay: breathing problems with paint fumes the only option offered was the usual “We will only refund one night of your two night stay!” Amanda absolutely refused any refund for my second reservation which was a one night stay that would begin the day AFTER my arrival. I subsequently went across the street to Sea Air Inn & Suites -Morro Bay. Sam agreed without hesitation to allow me to look at the rooms BEFORE paying. Not only was my cost for (1) Jr. King suite and (1) room w/two beds for 2-nites was <than HALF the cost of the (2) reservations I had at Ascot Suites. Both rooms at Sea Air were spacious, very clean, unlimited parking, beautiful views from each room, MW and fridge. DO NOT stay Ascot Suites before checking about conditions of property first!!! Even when painted it will NOT compare to Sea Air Inn & Suites-Morro Bay. TRIPADVISOR.COM USER 

I’d give this place another chance

Feb 9th, 2020

First of all, this place has great potential. It’s conveniently located to everything in Morro Bay as well as Hwy 1. We had an amazing view of Morro Rock from our room. The hotel staff was outstanding and their text message communication was efficient and appreciated. I would stay here again. The negatives this stay were: Our room. Stayed in 203 and I think the hotel might be in the process of renovation and simply didn’t get to our room yet. Carpet was dirty and had several visible stains. Tub/shower had no water pressure whatsoever. Would’ve taken over an hour to fill the tub (I tried) and only a trickle came out of the shower head. Considering the friendliness of the staff and the location of this hotel, I’d give them another chance in the future. Breakfast: Bagels, waffle maker, eggs, sausage, yogurt, etc. They brew a nice cup of coffee from a local roaster. TRIPADVISOR.COM USER
