Nice courtyard motel with blossoming orange tree in the middle. Very nice decor outside for an economy motel, and although furniture was average, walls in the room were painted in fun colors, lighting was good, and bed comfortable. Shower was a small stall, but water was fine. Space heater was sufficient for a cool spring night, but I would worry... more

friendly family owned place with cute, if somewhat dated, little rooms and some covered parking. convenient location and a great value. free wifi and cable tv. The owner even let me make a free long-distance call. if you're looking for a basic sleep and would rather spend your money with an independent businessperson than with an impersonal chain, stop here. more

Where to begin, drove into SLO around 7pm from the South. It was a 100 degree plus day in Socal. First we came across the Travelodge but they didn't have air conditioning, and we decided to check further up the way and then we saw Los Padres, a very handsome looking motel. It looked very well kept and recently painted,... more

We began staying at Los Padres four years ago when our daughter entered Cal Poly SLO. We have been staying there ever since and have been VERY pleased. The motel has always been very clean, quiet, and accommodating. We spent this past weekend there as we celebrated our daughter's graduation. This has always been a home-away-from-home for us, and we... more

On our way home from Napa Valley, we spent one night at Los Padres Motel in San Luis Obispo. While we were there we killed 2 roaches, one on the vanity and another in the bathroom. I informed the front desk of the problem and he replied, "We never have had roaches." When we arrived home later the same day... more

This is a clean, no frills motel, on Monterey, a 10 min. walk from downtown SLO. Parking is right there on the property. Clean rooms, somewhat small bathroom and shower stall. I've stayed there multiple times and have never had a problem. If you're looking for something on the fancy side, this isn't your place, but if you want a... more

We just came back from a road trip in Coastal California and we stayed one night at Los Padres Motel. Was horrible. From the outside, the property is nice, well decorated and in a great street. But the room was a dump, old, dirty, I could not even remove my shoes. Bathroom was dirty: a dump. Probably the worse room... more

When we got there the motel did not have our reservation and tried to charge us $20 more than what was quoted. The grounds are cute but when we got into the room it was dated. The manager told me he had a king bed but sent us to a room with two full beds. The chairs were stained, and... more

I stayed here for a few nights the last weekend of October 2005. This is a very cool place and very reasonable at $60 per night for a non-smoking room with two queen beds. I was able to park my car right next to the room under a covered carport. We walked to downtown SLO for the farmers market and... more
