The staff were very nice and helpful. The rooms floors weren’t cleaned but other than that they were very clean; bedding was clean and the pool wasn’t clean, but also this is the coast so but overall it was an amazing stay! Amazing staff and an amazing experience.

6/10 Good

Owner tries over charging fees that were already included. Will over charge on extended stays and will over charge for early check in. But everything else and other staff was good but this place will only get three stars from me for now.

Cheap is the word here .. checking in was fine, dirty corners around the room, you can hear the people next to you.
Verified review

6/10 Good

Check in was easy and fast. The room was clean, but too much air freshener. The room had only two bath towels, one hand towel, and one wash cloth for two people. And only one coffee cup. Breakfast was supposed to be "grab and go", but was really non-existent.
Verified review

4/10 Fair

Rooms were dirty. Stains all over the couch, bed linen, and towels. There was a hair tie left on the door knob with a handful of hair stuck to it. I was walking around in my socks inside the room and the bottom of my socks were black. Not clean whatsoever.

Floor was sticky and we had to ask them to mop it while we went to dinner. Room small, Blankets and linens need replacing. Desk clerk was curteous. Good location for access to university and town. I wouldn't stay there again.

6/10 Good

Close to downtown SLO, very close to freeway entrance, some restaurants close by. Parking is decent. Property is dated. We stayed in a 3 bedroom family suite that was a converted 2 bedroom apartment. Couch had two big holes in it. Hairdryer in bathroom did not work. Beds were okay.
Verified review

2/10 Poor

The breakfast was very sad: broken coffee machine, and a couple packages of gross muffins. Coffee machine in the room to the rescue? …. Um not….one package of whatever decaf and zero sugar or creamer and not one stir stick to be found. Towels, perhaps? Nah….two crappy small and thin thing. Shampoo but no conditioner……comfy bed? Nope. Totally could hear the springs when you toss and turn. The price was cheap and it was clean….so if your expectations are low it’s cool.
