This place and ownership is a disaster. The room was filthy so we didn’t stay. We paid for 7 nights and despite not staying there, they would not refund any of the money. We requested a partial refund and it was denied. Stay away from this slum

Good: Close proximity to freeway and restaurants. Bad: When you walk into the room you will be greeted with musty smell. No " Do not disturb sign" Receptionist is always MIA and you will need to call and wait to be assisted. Cooking station is not clean.

You get what you pay for
Would give it one star because the door lock worked. Very loud AC, bed hard as a rock, no exhaust fan in bathroom, ONE coat hanger in closet, crumbling paint in bathroom, smallest TV I have ever seen in a Motel, paper thin walls and ceiling. Wanted upstairs room and was told that there were no king beds upstairs, so had to try to sleep under a herd of elephants wandering around upstairs. If it were the only motel in town, I'd bring a tent next time.

The place is a scam and a sham!
I made reservations for 9/17–overnight with early checkout. We have an emotional support dog who we take everywhere (he has a heart condition and cannot be left alone so we are his support! Not a large dog—30lbs. We checked in at the front desk and were met with an extremely rude young woman who asked if he was a service animal. I told her it was illegal to ask but yes he was. She said she didn’t see a vest so she turned us away. I told her the whole reason I chose that motel was due to their pet friendly description online. She said I was lying and they have no such policy. I asked her to show me where it said “only service dogs” and she told me take it up with Expedia and to LEAVE!! She had a thick accent which was hard to understand and when I looked at her incredulously she started to climb over the front desk!!! I was in tears and hoped we could find a place at 9PM. The people waiting behind us were given a hard time by her as well by the things they said as they were asked to leave as well. We had lived in San Luis Obispo for 45 years and had NEVER been treated so poorly. Upon making my reservation, I chose to pay upon checkout so I wasn’t too concerned. Upon reading my credit card statement I saw I HAD been charged—the nerve!!! That was our last night in town as we’re moving to another state the next day. If we were still living in SLO, I would have gotten to the bottom of that rat’s nest issue So you are my next resort. Thank you

Convenient as it’s close to freeway, Cal Poly, walking distance to downtown and lots of dining options close by. Staff is really nice. We were disappointed that they couldn’t provide extra blankets when we requested. Place is a little outdated but is reasonable in price. Our stay was comfortable.

Diigusting
The room was disgusting. It smelled bad, there were black hairs all over the bathroom floor, there was a piece of cardboard covering something on the wall. I paid for 2 nights and left after the first night because it was so bad. There are lots of places to stay in SLO. This place should never be anyone’s choice. Sleep in your car before staying here.
