Room was spotless, well designed, and had great amenities. Staff was attentive on check-in and check-out. And the hotel is in the heart of the town…perfect location. Roof top bar/patio was such a nice bonus. Ate dinner at the Ox&Anchor…wonderful meal. Look forward to a future stay.

The location was great for access to downtown SLO and the rooms are spacious. Nice amenities such as robes, slippers, water and coffee. The staff were friendly and helpful. One suggestion is to avoid room facing the pool. There’s some area not in the hotel that seems to play music most of the day and you can hear it.
