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.

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.

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.
