I have never in my life experienced service as horrific as I have at the Vagabond Inn off of Madonna in SLO. If their training motto is "The customer is always wrong. Treat them all with disrespect" I would not be surprised one bit. The manager was extremely rude upon check in. And in one instance even stated "You have... more

Good location, surrounded by restaurants and shops. The area itself is ok, not the most vibrant area. The hotel is nice, clean and comfortable. more

The room was clean and bright. It smelled good. The bathroom and shower were clean. What more could you ask for? The owners live there and run it well. They are very knowledgable about the area and are proud of it. There is shopping all around, a Denny's next door and an IHOP on the other side. Continental breakfast is... more

We arrived at 2 am after driving over 3 hrs. The hotel was not honest and had sold our reservation. We were guaranteed for late arrival and paid ahead. Orbitz was very responsive and was able to find another room for us (it took 35 miniutes on the phone with Orbitz; but they were helpful). Orbitz should not use them... more

Unfortunately, this guest had an unfavorable situation with the check in via Orbitz. Please be advised that this technological issue was corrected.

Just returned from a trip my mother and I took to San Luis Obispo. We stayed for two nights based on the previous good reviews. We had a room with two queen beds. We had a quick check in, dropped off our bags in the room and headed out. When we returned around 10pm, my mother turned the bedspread and... more

Arrived after a five hour trip from LA tired and hungry. The reception were efficient and quick to check us in and advise us where the local restaurants were. The room was good and clean and being near the reception was quiet. The home town buffet just down the road was excellent for service and price. Opposite the inn is... more

We chose this hotel because it accepts dogs and we were pleasantly suprised. Location is just off the 101 freeway so it's about 10 mins drive to Pismo beach. Also, it's about 8-10 minutes to downtown. Clean and quiet- quite basic but if you have pets, this is one of the few places where you can get a room for... more

My 2 teens and I stayed one night while college touring April 2007. Not sure why this hotel is just 1 star (reason I gave it above average rating). Hotel wasn't luxury (wasn't expecting luxury)-- but it was clean, decent furniture, fridge, microwave, newer TV, coffee maker, and iron in the room. Nice heated pool and hot tub. A litle... more

Very happy with this hotel. Staff on front desk very helpful and friendly. Room was clean and bed very comfortable. The heated pool was great. The hotel is right next door to the Madonna Inn which you must go and have a look at and maybe have a drink or dinner there - it is the most amazing place. more

My experience was horrible here! One of the major employee's there was very rude and disrespectful. The furniture was not clean at all! I was not at all treated as a guest or paying customer!I cancelled my reservation after a few nights, and switched to Best Western which is fabulous! more
