Older property, but clean. Rooms on the small side. No sofa or love seat. No breakfast of any kind. Not enough parking spaces for all the rooms! Would be a problem when full. Excellent location on the edge of old town San Luis Obispo. Good price.

The property is clean, but the walls are very thin and it was very noisy. Sunday morning the room next to us was playing music really loudly. They also charge to check in early, which I think in this day and age is outdated.

I’ve stayed at a few Hotels in SLO, from expensive to not so expensive. I love it here. It’s not your Apple Farm or Madonna Inn or any other expensive Hotel, but it’s great for the price! It’s right in Downtown SLO, minutes from Cal Poly. Great location, friendly staff, rooms could be better, but they are clean. I am super picky and I am okay staying here. For the price, it’s a great choice. Now, if you want room service, spa, restaurant, bar… etc this is not for you. It’s more on the Motel side, but nice, clean, safe and friendly staff.

Room was clean, older motel with sufficient upgrades. Two queens barely fit in the room but mattresses were very comfortable, with clean linens, good quality sheets. Good for a one night stay.

This is a great little motel that is close to downtown San Luis Obispo. The rooms are small, but very clean. Shops and restaurants are an easy 4 to 5 block walk. Probably the best location for walking to town. The bathroom was newly renovated, but doesn’t include a tub. Overall, this was a great place to stay.
