I stayed a Apple Farm last week while visiting my daughter at Cal Poly. The hotel is adorable, from the front desk to the rooms. The property and my room were clean and very welcoming. Super comfy bed and a fireplace in the room. Check in and check out quick and easy. I definitely recommend this hotel. Very close to CP.

Hotel decor was not exactly my style, but everything was really clean, The reception attendant when we arrived to check in was fantastic, the rooms are large and clean, and the restaurant on site was very good. I would recommend it. And it seems to be a bit less expensive than the newly renovated spots down the road.

The room was terrible. I was put in the Trellis Court room. This is old, the heater was louder than a 747 engine. Literally the worst night I’ve had at a hotel in 20 years.

We used to stay at the Apple Farm Hotel when our daughter was a collegiate at Cal Poly SLO. Loved it. This time, it was a little different with our daughter and her pre teen daughters. Our room was spacious and clean… a welcome haven after many hours of driving from San Diego. Breakfast the next morning was not quite as good as I remembered it 22 years ago, but it was adequate.
