Best 4-star hotel
I'm impressed. This might be the most comfortable 4-star hotel I've stayed at. It even beats some of the 5-star places. The suite was clean, had a very comfortable layout, and well-thoughtout amenities (e.g. easy access to filtered water). Great noise blocking between rooms when we traveled with an infant. The downtown location worked out great for the infant, too - we were able to just take the stroller out for a walk or coffee without having to drive. The noises from the street wasn't able to be blocked as much though. If a car with a loud engine drive by or a group of teenagers skateboard by the building, you would hear it very clearly. The staff was able to help take care of the skateboarders very promptly. The staff - from the bell service to front desk - was friendly and helpful. Some of them turned down the offer of a tip. I hope this is an indication that the staff is fairly compensated. It is valet parking only, so we have to organize our luggage accordingly (what to bring up and what stays in the car). But the valet is very fast if you need access to your car. I believe our car was available within 5 minutes.

Love Hotel SLO!
This was our 3rd stay at Hotel SLO and our experience was fabulous every time. The rooms are amazing and clean, and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The location couldn’t be better. We walked everywhere! Shopping, restaurants and hiking were steps away. The rooftop bar and pizza were a favorite. We will be back!
