We booked this at the last minute, but should have looked around a bit more. Cons: The first room they gave us was #102. It was next to the lobby on the ground floor and reeked of cigarette smoke. It was dark, dingy and just gross. Definitely not worth $140. The hall smelled strongly of chemicals. I've never been hit... more

This place is a dump. An appointment with a wrecking ball is long overdue. I originally booked for three nights, but left early because it was so gross. I didn't expect much from this place, just a place to sleep and shower, and my expectations were fulfilled -- and then some (for the worse, that is). The room was dirty.... more

I wasn't expecting much at this inn, but here are the good parts of it -- The rooms were average size and the beds were firm. There were many red roses surrounding the entire building. Easy access to the 101 Fwy. Everything "looked" okay until we walked into our room. Here are the problems: 1.) The room smelled like roach... more

It's amazing to see the range of reviews, and I know why. This hotel has some extremes. On the plus side, the particular staff we dealt with were very friendly. We got a first floor room facing west (towards Morro Bay / the distant new Home Depot), very nice view of the Sisters peaks (that is until / unless they... more

We stayed here for 3 nights in July as my son was touring Cal Poly. The room was just ok--pretty large--beds were ok--linens were not great. We did not have a seat on our toilet--but this was taken care of immediately when we informed the front desk staff. Our room appeared to have been (sort of) renovated. When we arrived,... more

This was a midway stop on rt. 1 from S.F. to L.A. Price seemed good at $112 and we were only staying one night. All families had confirmed reservations but hotel had overbooked with soccer teams in town. Families after our check in with reservations were told they had no rooms for them. We all had rooms but not all... more

Our girls soccer team stayed here and it was not worth the money we paid! All the rooms were shabby with lights not working, wallpaper peeling, dirty carpets, leaking faucets and inconsistent water temperature for the showers in most of our rooms. One room even had bed bugs and they had to "bomb" it. No elevator to the 2nd floor(if... more

Had trouble, like others, finding this hotel. It's actually located off the freeway a couple of stops earlier than San Luis Obispo (going north from LA). When we got there, (10PM), no one was on the reception desk. 15 mins later, someone finally arrived to check us in. Apparently they had to collect another colleague and bring them to work!.... more

I was concerned about booking this hotel when I read some of the reviews on Trip Advisor but was pleasantly surprised when we arrived at this hotel. The rooms were clean and adequately equipped. The hotel was about a 5 - 10 minute drive from the town of San Luis Obispo but that wasn't a problem for us. Contrary to... more
