La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham San Luis Obispo Downtown
We would have enjoyed our stay more if the property had been quieter. Doors slamming and loud talking in hallways. Also, we could not get cold water in our sink, only lukewarm which was odd. Staff was great.

Madonna Inn
Staff are great Room was clean but the rooms are old , we could hear people talking on the next room and above us someone was stomping or making noise during the night. It was an experience staying at the Madonna Inn but for the price we will choose another option while in that area.

Apple Farm
The entire area was spotless. Very clean. Give it a 20 and that still is not good enough.
