5.0

The location and the room was clean

− No parking the parking was a few blocks away the sink was not in the bathroom but in the bedroom area and the queen size bed looked like a full size

Cute, relaxing and enjoyable.

8.0

Cute and quaint, unfortunately I did not get to enjoy the breakfast, I had to leave early but the property was lovely and the environment perfect!

Theresa · US · 2026-07-02

We spent two quiet nights and enjoyed what SLO offers.

6.0

The location was easily accessible to the downtown area shops. The hotel lobby was quiet and peaceful but very small.

− The bathroom had a leak in the tub, and the room had stains on the ceiling. The furniture was ancient and flimsy.

Overall, it was a good stay, but I won’t be coming back.

7.0

The Inn is beautiful. The orange trees in front are incredible. The staff were wonderful. The location is fantastic.

− I purposely booked a room with a bathtub, because I don’t have one at home and was really looking forward to some much needed relaxation. But the bathroom wasn’t great, to be honest. The bathtub itself was covered with big chips, like the coating had been damaged. I didn’t want to bathe in it. Also, breakfast was supposed to start at a certain time, but when I went down, they said it would be a 30 minute wait, just for pancakes and eggs for a few people. I wasn’t able to wait because I had plans. It would be helpful if the start time was more accurate. Again, the staff were lovely.
