Even though I live local Lee, I had friends coming up for an event in downtown SLO. I could not have asked for a better hotel with all of the amenities in the most perfect location to everything we wanted to do. It truly is a gem of a hotel and I would recommend this place to absolutely anyone visiting our area.

Love how clean and neat the hotel is. My door and window to the patio weren’t working—I was not able to open it, other than that, love the layout and decors. Was not fond of the light above my head, the opening between the sinks.—I couldn’t figure out where all the light switches were at to turn off some of the lights. Lol
Over all, very nice and would definitely go back.

Pros- staff were pleasant and helpful. Great location to walk to food and shopping options.
Cons- poor sound insulation between floors. We could hear every step the people above us made. Lots of outside noise from the alley (all night) off our balcony (through the night). Odd room configuration- the bathroom sink, shower were all incorporated into the room space making for little privacy pre/post shower. And the toilet is directly inside the room door.
