People often think of Motel 6 as a "bargain basement" option. This San Luis Obispo location is definitely affordable, but it's appearance, service and amenities are right up there with so many other chains that are regarded as higher class. If you like "simple but extremely well-done," this is the place.

We had a pleasant stay while in San Luis Obispo. Clean rooms, nice location, the employees were friendly. I thought it would have been nice to have a coffee machine in the room like most hotels and motels, but other than that we were quite satisfied and would stay there again.
