Our room had nice high ceilings, a mini fridge and a microwave. It's also on Monterey St, which is a 5 minute drive from anywhere downtown in SLO. Lots of people walk downtown too. I was driving an EV, and L2 charged across the street at La Quinta, which allows non-guests to charge. The owner was very helpful.

Wonderful and peaceful stay. The hotel manager was so friendly and helpful - giving me a call for the lost and found after we checked out. Although it's not a fancy brand hotel chain, I highly recommend this hotel for your brief stay.

We had a great one night stay here. We were pleasantly surprised by how big the room was (and high ceilings!) it felt very clean and well taken care of. Just one note that the headboard was a bit frayed/didn’t look great, but we try to stay away from them at hotels anyways while sleeping. Would definitely stay here again.
