He was really chill about me arriving to my check in late and when accidentally locking my key in my room. Both occasions were around 1am. The room was really nice, and clean I had a microwave, a fridge and a blow drier, and a Roku tv. I’ll be staying there again.

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.

Inexpensive - but worth it?

We booked late for a Cal Poly event. The price was good. The room is run-down, dirty, small, noisy, and in disrepair. The only good thing was the bedding was clean, and the beds pretty comfortable.

It was nice, big, spatial room, great location and price, if you’re booking little bit ahead of time! There is something I didn’t feel comfortable about… when I was checking out, I had my friend picking me up, and I was ready and packed, with my door open and ready to go, at the time of check out… but when my friend had arrived little bit after the checkout time, the attitude of the person who checked me in was not very pleasant…. But who cares about that I guess… It is nice, clean, big rooms place to stay! I will come back if I will be travelling there again!

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.

Nice, comfortable bed and clean room. Simple amenities. Fairly spacious. Competitively priced. Might be nice to offer Netflix or HBO for a few extra dollars a night. Otherwise is very close to downtown and there is a relaxing river visible from the patio towards the end of the parking lot.

SLO INN

Checking in and out was very easy and friendly. But the inn itself is very dated. Bed was just ok and pillows awful. Paper thin bath towel. Convenient location to Cal Poly where we came to town to attend the football game. I would not stay here again.
