The hotel at the time of our stay was going under renovations. It had been awhile since we last stayed here. Central location to the coast, Hearst castle, and wine country. We enjoyed the complimentary bottle of wine that came with the room during our stay.

I love the historic charm of this hotel. Updates are done tastefully. Rooms are large and comfortable. Some of the furniture could use replacing, but there is a lot of work being done. Everyone we talked to on staff was professional, polite and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

This is a cool old property, but with modernized rooms.The front desk is very helpful and courteous with great level of service. Super comfortable beds and great shower. It's located in the heart of downtown Atascadero and is within walking distance to fantastic restaurants. Make sure you try the Back Porch Bakery, which is attached to the hotel. Excellent!
