Hard Matress

The room was basic and clean. The bed was firm and to have available a matress pad, would have made the nights rest more comfortable.

Although clean, the room was very run down. Paint and lineoleum was old and pitted, carpet stained, no headboard. Thankful the A/C worked but too loud to run at night. Able to use ceiling fan. Did feel safe, busy road but fairly quiet at night

Very limited parking on property. The water pressure in the shower was very low and at least one time I could not get it to warm up. A bit overpriced even though it was one of the cheapest hotels in the area.

The property is beautiful, both on the outside and in the rooms. The pictures don’t do it justice. The room was clean. Parking is available directly next to the rooms, making unloading the car very easy. It’s not a long walk from downtown San Luis Obispo. Ultimately, it’s a great deal, I was surprised with how much we got given the affordable price!
