The property is in midst of remodeling rooms so slight inconvenience in parking as some spots taken with construction needs. But despite that the inn is very nice and quiet and a great location in SLO. I stayed in one of the remodeled rooms, its so nice! Super clean, modern and updated, and the staff is kind. I would definitely stay here again.

This property is the worst one I have stayed at in San Luis Obispo. The beds were uncomfortable, the furniture was falling apart and the bathtub had mold around it. You could use either the microwave or the fridge but not both due to the plugs and outlets, nothing a simple power strip wouldn’t fix.
