My family and I loved this place. It was reasonably priced, close to the freeway (but quiet), close to a restaurant (Margie's Diner), and the grounds were very well manicured. It really felt as though we were in a "rose garden." We would stay there again! More

We enjoy the Rose Garden because it is not too expensive (altho price seems to vary a lot from trip to trip). The cleaned up rooms are nice, altho the arm chair in our room was very stinky and dusty. The sliding windows are especially nice, since my husband needs a very cool room. And altho noisy, the air conditioner... More

We were able to make a group reservation at a reasonable price for the location and season that we held our wedding. Our wedding was the Mission San Luis Obispo and needed to host guests from Southern and Northern California. Cal Poly was having their graduation the same weekend so rates were ridiculous and the hotels were completely booked. The... More

From the mildew-y smelling hallway, to the dirty women's restroom smelling stairwell and then the 30 years of cigarette smoke embedded in the walls & flooring of the actual room, I didn't think it could get any worse. But then the room was dark, the lock on the sliding glass door did not seem to work, there were stains on... More

Reading reviews that complain about things like moldy smells always amuses me. This place sure had a moldy smell in the hallway, which was actually in process of being repainted, but so what? It reminded me of my grandmother's lake cottage. Here are the big pluses: the roses are lovely, the pool is clean, heated and mostly empty, the cleaning... More

I travel to San Luis Obispo at least every other month for business and I first stayed at the Rose Garden Inn because it was so reasonably priced. I have been back again and booked another stay for August because it is such a great deal! If you are looking for fancy this isn't the place for you. BUT if... More

We were met at receiption by a person who just could not be bothered with us or her job. After we checked in we were not happy with the room and ask if we could change to a first floor room but apparently their were none available, if we wanted a room facing in towards the pool we had to... More

Great night's sleep in a quiet hotel. They even have BBQ. My husband and I gave up on another cheap hotel nearby because of the noise (I'm a light sleeper), but Rose Garden has always been quiet. We go to SLO once a month, so it's important to get a clean, quiet room that is reasonable price. More

Room and bathroom were both large and clean. Bed was comfortable with clean sheets and blankets. Amenities included referigerator, microwave, plasma television. Enjoyed our stay very much and the dinner that was provided on Thursday night was excellent -- tri tip. Service personnel were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again and recommend hotel to friends. More
