Guest Reviews & Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and had nice little extras like information on hotel services, a refrigerator, and a microwave, but the towels seemed questionable in terms of freshness and there was a strong smell of Fabuloso cleaning solution. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making my experience even better. The location was perfect for my visit to Cal Poly SLO, being within walking distance of the university and several good restaurants. The dining options were simple but sufficient for my needs, especially enjoying the coffee maker in the room. The facilities were decent, meeting my expectations, but some areas could use improvement.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were above the standard for the price paid, clean, and spacious, with nice extra touches like information on hotel services and convenient amenities. However, there was a slight issue with a burning smell that appeared in the room. The service was friendly and accommodating, despite a minor inconvenience at my door and with large trucks present. The location on Monterey Street was peaceful and ideal for visiting Cal Poly SLO, although the dining options were limited, with a basic breakfast provided. The facilities were decent, offering simple but sufficient amenities.
I stayed at the hotel and found it to be a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were clean and didn't have any smoke odors, but they were not perfectly cleaned as I noticed some noise coming from the refrigerator. The hotel is located in a central and safe area, near restaurants and stores, making it convenient for dining and shopping. The service was very cordial and friendly, although I felt a bit exposed as the curtains didn't provide complete privacy. However, the room was a bit small for my liking.
