I have stayed at several Embassy Suites in many locations and I liked this one at San Luis Obispo the most. Most other locations hotels are much bigger but sometimes the smaller one give you the best experiences. The rooms are much cleaner and there are much less people at breakfast buffet time. The happy hour time is also much less crowded. Overall, this is the best Embassy Suites of all the locations that I had stayed at. Many thanks to the staff who made my short stay quite enjoyable.

At the time of check-in, the desk attendant exhibited a highly unprofessional and rude demeanor, despite my prior payment for my room through Expedia. Notably, the attendant charged my credit card twice. Consequently, I dedicated approximately two hours of my time to resolving the issue through customer service chat. I was informed that the erroneous charges would be reversed. However, upon checking back a week later, I discovered that the charges remained on my credit card. Such behavior in the hospitality industry is unacceptable. The attendant’s demeanor was characterized by condescension, as if I were incapable of understanding the situation. Upon entering the room, we discovered food debris on the carpet. However, upon returning to the front desk, we found an extended queue. After experiencing significant frustration with the previous check-in process, I was disheartened to be subjected to the same individual once more.

Service was great from the front desk. The bathtub was clogged and filled up and these gross chunks came out. I was disgusted when I looked down at the filled up tub and floaters. They offered $25 which was not enough considering 2 of my family members didn't want to take showers after that. The pull out bed was not comfortable. Overall the inside of the hotel was nice and big.

The complimentary breakfast and evening reception are always the perks for staying at this hotel. They do a good job. What I didn’t like about the stay this time was the gym not equipped with water and towel, the parking was used to be free, but now they charge $15 per day. The parking lot is shared by nearby businesses, and it’s free! So, I don’t understand why they can charge for parking which is free to anybody but the hotel guests.

We booked 2 rooms and requested for joined. As soon came in the room and tried opening curtains big spider was on it. Rooms were not joined and right next to the highway super noisy. After driving for six hours won't be able to sleep at night. Instead of enjoying will be suffering tomorrow due to lack of sleep. Shower drain is clogged water does not get out fast enough and have to turn off and wait to for water to drain otherwise it goes above ankles. Very disappointed with whole experience.
