Id stay here again...
My stay here was good, but its the smallest room I've ever had. Haha It was clean and smelled fresh. The bed was comfortable. There were a couple of snts scouting around the bathroom, but not enough to be a problem. My main critism was my view. There was a building blocking sny hope of a view
My view...

Nice motel to stay in that is close and convenient to all that SLO has to offer. Rooms are clean, well appointed, comfortable and great for a few nights stay. The staff is very friendly and helpful. For the price a fantastic spot.

Decent room, clean, but paper-thin walls.
Clean and easy, decent location. Walkable to downtown and Cal Poly SLO campus. Paper-thin walls and the smell of marijuana every time I stepped outside.
