"The Harbor House Inn - quiet, great view, small balcony, walking distance to everything and a decent sized room for the occasion. The staff is welcoming, hospitable and helpful. The beds were comfy! This place checked all the boxes. Our only issue was the pungent odor in the room from the moment we walked in. This place is "pet-friendly" so our first thought was that a dog may have been in this room previously and that it may have urinated on the carpet. We've stayed in five different places in Morro Bay over the last two years and have never experienced this issue in any of the places we've stayed in. We're not complainers - we understand "stuff" happens and we usually roll with it. However, after we had left the room for a few hours and came back, the odor was as strong as ever, so I approached the front desk about it. They were booked so we couldn't switch rooms, but they offered to switch us the following day as rooms would become available. The woman behind the desk was as accommodating as she could be under the circumstances and assured us she'd advise the manager the next day (which she did). We ended up buying a few "Glades" plugged them in the wall, and that helped tremendously! We opted not to switch rooms as the we had temporarily solved the problem. However, the odor still remained. Overall - we enjoyed our stay. Would we stay here again? Not sure - we love the location, but wouldn't want to risk walking into a room with this issue again. 3 1/2 stars out of 5."
