Our check in experience was stupendous. The location of the Carlton in Atascadero is perfect for those that like to walk around and explore. The restaurants are walking distance and the free parking experience was a plus. Now the rooms were outstanding and super clean. I would recommend this hotel to any family member of close friend.

Room was kind of musty but we had just had bad rains so im guess that was the issue after we opened the windows and the sun came out all was good. Bed super comfortable, very quiet but lots of good places to drink and eat eithin walking distance. Nice older hotel that has been updated but still has that old hotel charm.
