8/10 Very good

The room was spacious, clean, comfortable, and affordable. It's also in close proximity to both Cal Poly and Downtown. Also, the hotel manager was accommodating and helpful.

The staff was very nice and courteous. They were accomodating in holding a ground floor room for us.

Nice area to stay at and not so expensive
Brenda, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

When we arrived there was a couple in front of us trying to get refunded for their room because of roaches. After they left I asked if I could just cancel my room instead of checking in. The man at the front desk tried to tell us the couple was lying about the bugs in the room. We agreed to check-in and inspect the room, but what was so strange was the man said "Are you going to give me $100 if there's no roaches?" We personally didn't see any but only stayed there overnight. SKIP THIS PLACE
Sarah, 1-night trip

There are roaches in the rooms, staff is extremely rude. Rooms have holes in the wall and walls are paper thin.
Cristina, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not worth the price

Rundown place, terrible parking and parking lot broken concrete and uneven. Old building. Rooms super small. Broken outlets. Super small bathroom and we stayed in a “suite”. No amenities. Only plus was that it was literally next to freeway entrance.
Broken outlet and roaches

Nice one night stay

6/10 Good

The beds are old and super uncomfortable. I got a bed with a hole in the middle.
Zaird, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I liked the TV amenities (I was able to access my Netflix & Youtube accounts without issue). The room I was needs some furniture upgrade.
Miguel, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

thick layer of dust visible on the curtains, visible mold in bathroom. Extremely Noisy- the showers in adjoining rooms sound like they are in your room. People loudly arguing talking coming and going at 2:30 am
Melissa, 1-night trip

This property has all the basic amenities you need for a pleasant stay in a quiet yet convenient area. It was lovely

Perfectly adequate.
Nichole Christine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Just average like a motel 6.
Christine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location, easy access and a good value. Updates look good but floors had only been swept, not washed, so they looked clean but socks were very dirty daily from the floors.
Amy, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

We stayed here one night before graduation. It was fine for the purpose.
Roni, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The property smelled strange when we checked in and were not clean.
Kristel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property is very near Cal Poly SLO. The room was clean and price was decent for one night stay. There were plenty parking spaces. My room was on the back row so I didn’t hear the highway noise.
Tuan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We had a late check in, and called ahead to make sure it was 1) ok, and 2) to update time of arrival. When we arrived, the night manager(?) was very gruff. He spoke so softly that it was incredibly hard to hear what he was saying, and he was very short with us. Our room was nice. The fridge leaked ice(?) or water(?) all over the floor, so we used hand towels to clean that up. There was a loud "drip" noise that we heard all night- that was frustrating, as we couldn't tell where it was from. Finally, parking was near impossible to obtain- I was only able to park onsite because someone left. I was glad I didn't need to interrupt the night manager for help with that. All in all, it was a fine visit. With a few tweeks, it could be a good visit.
