1 day stay
Beds were super comfortable and rooms were overly spacious. Water pressure was great as well. Lots of food places in walking distance and gas stations as well. I will definitely stay there again.

The man who owns this hotel puts no effort into his character but does put a decent amount into his hotel. Outdated but clean enough rooms. There's a pool and hot tub, which we really enjoyed. I read the reviews and many are similar. This isn't a place to be treated like a person but it's a decent hotel with comfortable beds, a fridge, a microwave, some parking and a pool.

Good fir quick trip to SLO
Nice spot for super quick trip to SLO. Right by Freeway for quick travel getaway. Bed comfortable - ask for a room on second floor as a little noisy on ground floor. Free parking and good location.

Just alright
We’ve stayed here before in 2021, and had a terrible stay. The neighbors were loud, and we had trouble sleeping. I booked here again not realizing it was the same hotel. Same issue, neighbors all around were loud and I had trouble sleeping. I appreciated the free parking, and the ease of the check in though. I will not book again.

The Inn at San Luis Obispo Stay
The most comfortable beds I've slept in at a hotel since Singapore. Very nice. The AC is under the sink and it hits the edge of the valence, so it doesn't cool the room and the cooled air never leaves the area under the sink. That needs to be fixed. Luckily, the temps were only in the mid 70°s and we had the windows open, so it was very nice, but on a hot day that's not gonna cut it. Otherwise it was quiet during the day and evening and there are plenty of places near by to grab some food. Overall, very nice experience. I'm staying there again in a couple of days as I have to see my son again in San Luis Obispo.

The hot tub wasn't working, but other than that, it was clean, somewhat spacious, and comfortable. You can't beat the price.

The bed was comfortable but the room had not been cleaned well prior to my late night check in. There was a rotten salad in the trash can and a drop of what looked like salsa dried on the top of the duvet cover.
Holes in the drapes and mildew lined shower. At least the trash was emptied by the time I returned to my room on the evening of the next day. This is what $185/night gets you in SLO during graduation week:(

I can see the restroom from here
I had requested inaccessible room. I was told that it was not accessible. At least there was no rolling shower or any accommodations like that. But the doorway into the bathroom is not even wider enough to get into with a wheelchair. When we talk to the person at the desk we were treated indifferently. There was no offer to help in any way or to make an accommodation. When we convey that we would like to cancel because we could not access the bathroom we were told that you would refund one night but not that night. Being a little friendly or offering a smidge of empathy would have been nice. But it was very impersonal.

We were unable to stay here because our campervan would not fit under the entrance-way, and there was no alternative parking.
