Overall, we had a positive experience however we were charged for an “early” check in fee even though we arrived less than an hour early. We were also told that our luggage could be held after check out, while we assisted our son with his move to college. Unfortunately, at check out, they were only able to accommodate for 2 out of our 4 pieces of luggage (2 suitcases, 2 carry ons). Other than that, the room was clean, breakfast was adequate, and most staff members were friendly. The location was also very convenient with the freeway on ramp right outside the parking lot. We’d definitely consider staying again.

Pleasantly surprised by this hotel. From the outside it looks old and dated but it's better than that. Not a bad place to stay.

A quaint little stay while dropping our son off at Cal Poly. Staff was friendly and the area was nice. The bed and pillows were so uncomfortable, like sleeping on cardboard.

The room was clean and comfy bed. The shower floor was slippery, i almostvfell several times. Shower floor is very unsafe. Then, the toliet got backed up and it barely had any paper in it. Toliet backing up should never happen.

Desk employee was rude and snarky upon check in. The room was dirty in all the corners or under tables. No towels in the pool area. And when asked for some, took them 45 mins to bring.
