“Really Strong Odor in Room”

Reviewed 6 days ago NEW

We won't be returning here. Our room had a really strong odor - it was bad! I went to the front desk and asked if we could change rooms, but they didn't have any other available rooms. They were thoughtful enough to offer me an Ibuprofen for the headache the smell had given me or to come and spray Febreeze... More

Helpful?

Thank Terry D

Dear Terry D, I am very sorry to hear that the room was not up to par. It is our top priority that guests are comfortable throughout their stay here, so this situation is unacceptable. If you would be so kind as to give me a call at the hotel, I would be happy to discuss this further with you.... More

“the customer service makes the stay”

Reviewed 1 week ago

decent place to stay at a great price. it's old and dated, but clean. because of cal poly freshman move-in, the location was sold out, and if you needed to change rooms you would be out of luck. still, it was reassuring to know the staff and general manager, Mary, would do whatever was in their power to do to...

This is one of my favorite places to stay and this past visit was wonderful as always. This hotel is a quaint older hotel with beautiful grounds. The staff is always personable and helpful. We haven't been in a while and this visit we found that it had a new owner who has begun doing renovations. We were thrilled to... More

“Poor”

Reviewed 3 weeks ago via mobile

We stayed as a family for 2 nights en route to San Francisco. Whilst the inn is well located for San Luis Obispo, there is a traditional diner nearby and the wifi connection was good everything else was very poor. We were particularly concerned with security as there appeared to be other guests who were wedging the doors open as... More

This was a last minute trip for us and I'm glad we stayed here. Daniel checked us in and we went to our assigned room upstairs. After opening the door, I called Daniel to see if he could move us to a first floor room for my sister in law who is not very mobile. Not only did Daniel immediately... More

“You've Reserved An ADA Room? Well, Good Luck With That!”

Reviewed August 12, 2016

More than two weeks before our stay, I reserved an ADA Queen/Queen room plus a King room, directly from the hotel's website. Imagine my chagrin when, upon presenting ourselves at the front desk, we were told that they had no ADA room for us. No explanation, no real apology, no recognition that people who need ADA rooms need ADA rooms.... More

Thank Yobabs

Dear Yobabs, I am very sorry that we were unable to accommodate you in one of our ADA rooms. We always want to accommodate anyone who requests one of those rooms and clearly one of our reservations systems made an error. If you would be so kind as to send us a note to rgislo1@gmail.com, we would like to make... More

“Pretty dingy...”

Reviewed August 11, 2016 via mobile

This place is OK for a stop over on a road trip if you are just looking for a spot to sleep. However, it's a drive from downtown SLO, not easily accessible. But it is just off the highway, so depends on why you want to stay in the area. Honestly, the hotel itself is a little on the skeevy... More

It is our top priority to provide guests with comfortable accommodations, and to hear that you were not comfortable is unacceptable.

Our check in was quick and easy. Front desk and manager was very helpful with recommendations of places to eat and visit in the areas. We stayed in room 131 with a great view of the pool and jacuzzi. Room was super clean and comfortable. This will be our new spot to stay from now on.
