Best Western Tradewinds, Morro Bay CA

We highly recommend this newly renovated Best Western. They’ve done a great job remodeling the whole place, inside and out. It was more then we expected! We were greeted by Laura at the front desk upon our arrival and upon every one of her recommendations we did it all and loved it. Our room was beautiful and had a spectacular view. You’re only one block from the quaint little town. Calm waters of Morro Bay, Morro Rock, Shopping, Restaurants, Surfing and more. We will definitely be back!

I love being a Best Western member. Their rooms are nice and their customer service is great at every location except this. The old blonde lady that worked at the lobby front desk on July 28th, 2023 night was a closed minded racist. I used my husband’s card to make my reservation on call with them. When I got to the lobby to pick up my keys the first words she said to me were “what you need. ” I told her 3-4 times that I was trying to check in, but she kept saying “what? ”, I started questioning myself if I was even saying the right words. Then she said “oh, you check-in” and she tells me to give the credit card I used for the reservation. I told her that I used my husband’s card and he is not here, and asked if I could use a different card or my company’s. She interrupted me, saying I couldn’t because the last names on my reservation and the credit card were different. I explained to her because we are different cultures, in my culture you do not have to change your last name to your husband’s. She then told me she was still going to charge my husband’s card and wouldn’t give me my room key. I only was able to get my room key when I paid with my own card, but wouldn’t give a refund on my husband’s card.
In the middle of the situation she let another worker help me instead and walked out of the room. The other employee thankfully told me he was going to try to cancel the other payment for me. I told him I was a member at Best Western, and asked if there was a discount. Then she came out from the other room saying she already give me my discount. Later that night, I checked my receipt and it showed i paid the same amount as it was on the website, and that there was no discount applied.
If you do not like your job maybe it is time to look for one you like instead of taking out the frustrations of your probably loveless marriage on your customers. I wanted to share my experience to others who aren’t originally from this country to beware of this racist from ruining your vacation.

Not trying to be pretentious here but this was our 1st time at an best western or any type of motor inn. We were traveling from sf to disneyland and wanted a quick stop and they had a ev charger so why not.it was a lot better than expected. The rooms and the staff were wonderful and the location just couldnt be beat. Without their EV charher we never wouldve even found our new favorite spot to stay at morrow bay now.

It was ok for one night
The rooms are getting old and a bit worn
Breakfast room very small
Starting position good and only about 100 meters to the water

Very pricey for a Sunday. Small room
Very small toilet and shower. Only a decent view from a deck upstairs. Did have Good furniture couch and chairs and umbrella tables up there.
Mediocre breakfast. There is a breakfast and lunch eatery behind the hotel that was very busy. And a little boutique next to it. Probably another option next time

Staff is amazing and friendly. Rooms are really nice clean and inviting. My ocean view was perfect. Location is on point. Breakfast was really good. Loved having coffee all day. The grounds are warm and inviting. Love this one staying here again.

Recently stayed here with my significant other and our friend. Garrett and Kendall were very nice and didn't mind that we kept coming back for the cookies in the lobby. I think we ate 6. The location is extremely close to the ocean, literally less than 5 minute walk away. There was also free breakfast. I loved how there was a board that tells you what is for breakfast everyday. My signficant other likes the sausage links, but I prefer sausage patties. This changes everyday! Rooms were comfortable and room service was attentive. Thanks! Here's a picture of us in the lobby.

The beds are a Rocky hard County road, just awful. The rooms are nice and clean. The staff have the best customer service around which makes the stay amazing!

Cost-effective accommodation. One minute walk to see the sea, breakfast was better than I expected, and the staff was very kind. He knew we were tourists, so he explained the road conditions around us first.

Great location for Otter viewing. It's an older building so the rooms are smaller but totally workable and clean. The morning breakfast was surprisingly good. New ownership. Larger of the small fridge and it had a freezer. The staff was very friendly.

Just one block from the bay and rock. Room is small but well kept. Fridge microwave wifi and free hot breakfast items. Quiet the night I stayed.

The room was very small and dated. However, it was quiet and was able to get a good night's sleep. It's location is what this place has going for it.

The hotel is in a great location. There are lots of shops, restaurants and ocean access in walking distance. The room was very clean and the service was great.

Good location
Pretty shabby rooms and outdated technology
For 1 night ok
It is better to refrain from staying above that

Loved the view of Morro rock. There is a Tesla charger free of charge. Lovely second-story rooftop deck. Heating and cooling worked well. I had an issue with shower/bath faucet not resolved (could not shower/bathe the morning I left. Only scalding, hot water came out.) —Probably too late for room switch. No breakfast was served the morning of my stay due to staff sick call.
