Embassy Suites is always a “safe” booking. The staff was very nice, and the cocktail hour had more options than other Embassy Suites. BUT, paying $17 per night for parking, was a little ridiculous, when no one would park there for any other reason???

Disappointed

In the last few months, I have stayed at many different Hilton hotels. I was looking forward to staying at the Embassy Suites. I was disappointed in the cleanliness of the room, the stains on the sofa, the filthy vent in the shower, the sticky handles on the closet and the room needs an update. I didn’t check into the room until later in the day, due to circumstances beyond my control. And after a long day, I certainly did not want to stay in a dingy dirty room, especially considering what I paid. I will be traveling again to San Luis Obispo many more times over the next 2 years, but I will not stay there again. Also, the wait times to refill items at the breakfast buffet was to the point, where I stopped waiting…whether it was waiting for bacon, sausage or even oatmeal. I wasn’t the only one who was tired of waiting and walked away.

Our room was next to the freeway, which resulted in a lot of noise and not very good quality sleep. Half the plugs didnt work in the room so recharging devices was inconvenient. The complimentary happy hour had 1 bartender serving 100+ people, making us wait for about 30 minutes to get our drinks. Overall, ive definitely had worse, but ive definitely had better.

This is a nice property. The only downsides are two: 1) weekend breakfast is too late for an early traveler and 2) Every single time I stay at an Embassy Suites something is broken in the room. Every time! They don’t check the rooms at all and wait for the weary traveler to complain. And the room was not cheap.

Nice but…

The stay was great. However the placement of our room was next to the front desk. It was not quiet as it was loud when guest come in and out of the hotel. Also, the bed was not comfortable at all. The mattress on both beds needs to be replaced. I did not sleep well at all.
