Great location
We had a 2 night stay, visiting family that lives in SLO, and found this to be a good location for us to do bicycling. The hotel was quiet and the AM continental breakfast allowed us to eat before our rides. The 12:00 check-out time is very convenient. Hotels in this area are not inexpensive and this was part of a several day vacation, so we did not want to break the bank. The place was clean and good location- near downtown.

Local biking and hiking is terrific. There is a bike shop, right down the street on Monterey, with free maps and friendly staff.

It's OK
On the road of motels, this one is OK. It's clean and comfortable. If you want a place to sleep at night, it's fine. Our only complaint was the motorcycles that make quite a bit of noise in the morning. Otherwise, it's not fancy, but it's nice.

Passible
Hotel was ok for a night or two but woman on front desk was deplorable. Her unsmiling nasty personality has no place in hospitality. She seemed only interested in the TV and not helping her cutomers.

Not recommended, low quality
Let's start at the start. Guy at the desk blows into room card holder before putting the key in. I don't want random stranger germs/breath on my room keys that I have to carry around me. This is gross. Make no mistake, this is a MOTEL, rooms facing inwards to a parking lot. Rooms are dark and very dated, odd cabinets that do not appear meant for a motel/hotel, and very strange bathroom that appear as if they were lifted from a cruise ship (very narrow and odd shaped). Beds are springy and not particular comfortable. Breakfast is worst than your usual continental faire and in a very tight space. I get that San Luis Obispo has a generally poor supply of quality hotel rooms, but despite perhaps the lower price, this place should likely still be avoided.

lacking a lot
very bare minimum motel. no fitness center, thin walls, stark decor, nothing cozy at all, just the very basics. Don't plan to sleep if you are a light sleeper at all as you can hear everything that goes on outside the door and in the surrounding rooms. Breakfast is also not worth even going to.

Descent
We visit this area about 3 times a year. I thought this hotel was a little expensive considering the location and size of room.
