What a great little hotel! It’s centrally located, just a 5 minute walk to downtown SLO where there’s tons of cute shops and great restaurants. Our room was clean, comfy and very quiet and very reasonably priced. I will definitely be staying here again when I return to SLO!

The rooms were clean and updated and quiet at night. The property is super convenient for walking around the downtown. It also has easy access to the freeway. It's walking distance to the Nautical Bean plus a couple other bakeries and coffeeshops for breakfast. Easy on and off the freeway. Would stay there again, no question!

This is a great value in SLO with comfy beds. Nothing fancy, but if you just need a great bed in a quiet motel, a walkable into town, this is a great choice. Save you cash for going out!
