"Such a great little gem! We will be back! I can't say enough great things about the Q. It's new, spotless, beautifully appointed with such attention to detail. We had our own firepit to relax at with wine and cheese in the evening. There's actual daily maid service, which is a rare find today. The owner, Jack, and his family are so friendly and helpful and really want to make your stay comfortable. We will make the Q our new place to stay when visiting morro bay."
