Quick trip!

The hotel was clean and my daughter even made a comment to me about the clean room and comfy bed. The pillows are not great, but that is nearly every hotel. The breakfast needs some work as the cream cheese on my bagel tasted old and so was my granola bar. The staff was very kind and helpful. I would stay there again and just get my breakfast elsewhere.

Surprisingly perfect

It was a prefect experience, I can't find any fault during our stay. The location is easy to get to yet very quiet. Parking is plentiful even at late night. Walkable distance to some of the very nice restaurants around. The free breakfast is lovely, better than even some of the hotel we stayed. The room is beautiful, there's honestly nothing we don't like during our stay and we enjoyed this inn more than what we expected.

Positive aspects: Staff are kind and parking is easy. Location is convenient walk to the school and short drive everywhere else. Windows open. Room for improvement: Beds need new and more pillows, they are square, uncomfortable and few per bed. Air conditioning is noisy. Coffee in the room is Folger’s. Breakfast is minimal.

Breakfast was just bread

I wanted to love this hotel. The photos are amazing. The bathroom was big. The closet in the bathroom, if you’re wondering. However, the breakfast was severely lacking. Pretty much false advertising if you’re judging by the photo of the breakfast spread here. We stayed over spring break as we were touring universities (CalPoly SLO is walking distance). We had stayed in a La Quinta in San Diego before arriving at SLO. The room at this hotel was more than what we paid in San Diego. At La Quinta, we had scrambled eggs, grilled meat, toast, etc. at this hotel, all they had to offer was bread in a bin that didn’t have tongs. Coffee in another room. No yogurt or cereal. No eggs. We couldn’t believe it. This “upscale” Best Western only had bread and packaged oats. I’m not sure if food selection is less in the summer months but if you’re expecting breakfast like in the photo here, call ahead before you make your reservation.
