The hot water and water pressure are fantastic. The room I stayed in had no carpeting, which I consider a plus, as the floor felt clean as I walked barefoot. WiFi worked fast, the staff member was pleasant and helpful. A little parking lot noise. This is my second stay at this property - will return!

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.

Room was very clean nice bed, could have used some fruit for breakfast. Differently need window dressing some mini blinds or black out curtains. I had to put a blanket over the windows to block out the lights. Real big problem the people in the room next to us were up all night people coming and going doors being slammed all night women yelling to get in the room. I did tell the lady in office this morning. I was surprised she didn’t hear anything sense their room was right below she then mentioned she thought she heard noises but assumed it was from Taco Bell 1 block over. Anyway turns out he’s a frequent guest. Again the room and location were very clean nice bed.

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.

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.

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.
