Closet doors broken, toilet was loses from the floor and the shower needs to be cleaned better. But the place was quiet that might be due to no front desk staff to be found anywhere after check in. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c0250bef-95b3-45d5-a2ff-b8c17319f35b-1762268848244.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### RONALD Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jul 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The people are very nice.

Bed was comfortable and clean. Unfortunately, carpets old and stained. In-room refrigerator was smelly, probably because it didn't work. Overall, room condition was just old and tired. ##### Lyle Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Henry Jul 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities It was really nice and beautiful place except the room was pretty hot ##### Henry Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Tami Mar 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location! ##### Tami Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael Apr 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Simple and well located little hotel.

We enjoyed our stay. The usual amenities are provided ##### Alicia Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### DON Jun 21, 2025 Stayed for 1 night for graduation at SLO. Other than the price gouging for the event weekend, we found the room very nice, and the check-in staff friendly. Pillows are worthless though, and there is a lot of loud door slamming at all hours. Sheets and bathroom were acceptable, and the refrigerator worked fine. ##### DON Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wen Mar 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Glen was very friendly and helpful! ##### Wen Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia Galvan or Gabriela Jul 18, 2024 Liked: Amenities Like the cleanness and great staff great location ##### Patricia Galvan or Gabriela Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Community Sep 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Affordable clean, fast, friendly and great coffee service. ##### Community Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jesus Jan 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great and quiet night ##### Jesus Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trish Mar 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendly staff.

The location is quiet and in walking distance of downtown. We stayed in a family suite. The TV in the second room wasn't able to show anything and the lamp in the corner of the main room wasn't working (same room and same issues as last time), but these were minor issues. ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### May Apr 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property has 3 buildings, with elevators available in the main building. This was helpful aa we were bicycle touring. There was a cute covered patio area outside the main building, but it was hard to enjoy as it seemed dirty and the trash bins were full. ##### May Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul Sep 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice place Surprisingly nice place.
