Beautiful property. Great location. Very clean and modern. My only complaint is the price for valet a night ($45) and the incidental cost a night ($125), seems a bit steep for a hotel in SLO. Nonetheless, there is a public parking building kitty corner from the property for $16 a night.
Beautiful, clean and upscale hotel in a very central downtown SLO location. Loved staying here.

Best hotel in SLO. Great location to walk to anywhere downtown. Beautiful rooms. Bathroom could have used a second sink, but overall top notch. Loved the rooftop pool with bar. Very friendly staff. Will be back.
New ish hotel in downtown SLO. Rooms are very modern, staff is friendly. The view from our room which was described as a city view was of roof top hvac systems. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was huge.
I just discovered this hotel and it is terrific. Beautiful rooms well appointed with great amenities and the bed is very comfortable. The hotel is beautiful. I look forward to my next visit.
