My wife and I have just stayed here for 7 nights and it was truly wonderful. Everything was perfect, the staff were truly amazing so helpful in so many ways. Lauren at the Front Desk was outstanding as was the manager.The comp breakfasts were fine (something for everybody).
We used Enterprise Rental on Broad Street, they picked us up and returned us to our hotel and even let us choose what car we wanted, you cannot beat that for service.
Thank you for making our stay in San Luis Obispo so memorable.
Thank you again Expedia for all your help with our reservation (that is why we always use yo

this hotel needs a makeover, everything is dated. service from staff pleasant and helpful, breakfast typical for hie, but I notice when bananas were. out they weren't replaced forbsome time. rooms are not for the business traveller, at least not from.my point of view. Round table, with few ac outlets. Fitness room: small, sit downn bike straps broken, no cleaning wipes, no weights, weighing scale situated in.the bathroom, which is also in.the fitness room. walls need repainting or at least repaired. Ss I say not the best and not the worst « less

We stayed here for one night as we toured the Cal Poly campus. The rooms were spacious and well decorated. The beds were comfortable as were the pillows. The linens on the beds were fine but not as high quality as I was expecting.
The location is on the same street at many hotels which are all within a mile or so from downtown and the campus. We were impressed with the decor of the hotel. It looks like its been recently remodeled. The rooms look like that as well but the bathrooms were a surprise. Although they were all clean it seemed that they hadn't been updated. Not that big a deal but surprising since the rest is all so nice.
The breakfast was fine, nothing special. They had the fun pancake machine but they were out of syrup. The had yogurt, cereal, hardboiled eggs, bagels and all the usual. There seemed to be just enough tables for the guests and there was enough room to walk around. They had free newspapers everywhere which was really nice.
The front desk folks were fine and helpful. « less

We stayed one night when visiting Cal Poly with our son. This turned out to be a fine place to stay and they offered a breakfast as well. We drove the short distance to town and had dinner and finished our night off in the hot tub. Close to the Cal Poly campus, clean, and comfortable. « less

Expensive for the kind of hotel service and location. It is just a place to spend a night, no kitchen / even restaurants closeby. We had to drive for 10 mins to get water for the night. Best if you stay near the main street (near the mission) at SLO. « less

Dear TarunkJain,
Thank you for choosing our hotel on your last trip to San Luis Obispo. I would like to apologize for the issues you encountered during your stay. I would like the opportunity to speak with you directly because we actually do have many restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. We also vending machines with various snacks and drinks. The hotel is located only minutes away from downtown with many more shops, restaurants, and local entertainment for our guests to enjoy. I look forward to sharing this information with you.
Thank you,
