With my sister I stayed here after the death of my brother-in-law. The owner was his business aquaintance and was kind enough to offer the conference rooms for the services. That was very generous, as was the catering. Thanks to Jason for his help, too. The staff was equally gracious and helpful. They were accommodating when we checked out and... more

We came for the car show in Pismo Beach, but lodging prices there are jacked-up during the show. San Luis is a short drive away, and we were upgraded to a suite for a reasonable price. We had a large screen tv in the living room, and you could borrow DVD's from the front desk. The bedroom had a dresser... more

Found this charming Inn by chance and we were pleasantly surprised by the comfort and cleanliness. Very friendly staff at desk. Free moviesa from their library was a great bonus. Would recommend and will definitely stay there again if in the area. Breakfast was nice - freshly baked croissant and danish were delicious! Coffee was real java! more

Our room was great for the price. The external noise level was high, but the room itself was quiet. It was very dog friendly. We had some problems with one of the heaters in our suite, but we managed with extra blankets they loaded us up with. They were already working on the heater as we departed. We enjoyed our... more

After reading many reviews of hotels in San Luis Obispo, I was a little nervous about this hotel. We were upgraded to a suite from a normal room (it is a deal on their website) and the suite was HUGE. Not fancy, but clean. There was a bar, a couch, a little table with chairs, a bathroom, and a normal... more

In response to my fellow Ventura County resident... SLO isn't the cheapest of towns for hotel accommodation and we were searching for something reasonably cheap. For $139 we got what we expected. the room was clean and more than adequate for a weekend getaway. Can't comment on any noise since after a hard day's vacationing (if that isn't an oxymoron)... more

Our bill was 289 for two nights in August, Sunday and Monday. We chose this property because it seemed to be more affordable than some of the others we checked out and also did not seem to be a cheap dumpie place either! and a good location.We had an upstairs what they call a non-smoking Suite in the corner with... more

Service was crappy, did nothing to shut up the guests that were next door with their TV on full volume til 3 am. The air conditioner sounded like it was going to come off the wall. the carpets were nasty and the food served at the breaksfast was just left out there for everyone to put their hands all over.... more

We arrived on monday June 16 and was pleasantly surprised that our room was upgraded to the Mayors Suite. Our 3 year old had more room to play around. My husband just loved the room which was complete with a refrigerator, microwave & a mini bar! There were always people in the front office to answer any question & they... more

The Sands is a nice basic hotel. Maybe a little pricey for what you get, but they throw in a free continental breakfast. It is an old school motel, centered around the parking in the middle, so you drive right up to your door. Rooms are not too large, not too small. Table with 2 chairs, a one comfy chair,... more
