Unexpectedly basic - felt like just a bed in a room. Ended up not staying even though we had to pay for the night. Probably our fault for not doing enough research

Room smelled like bleach, a little noisy across the street, the continental breakfast is a joke. Overall the Inn is way overpriced for what you get. 3 out of 5

Nice place to stay for the night. Continental breakfast was less than we expected but for the price of the room we can’t complain. Desk manager was very courteous and helpful.

We enjoy staying at this site. Unfortunately, this time around our room door took many tries to open (needs to be fixed).

Great value. The parking lot was under construction so it took away from the overall appearance but that's temporary. Staff was awesome.

Liked: Cleanliness
This is definitely no frills but the room was clean & the bed was comfortable. Very convenient to the highway & to Cal Poly. Not much in the immediate blocks surrounding the property so pretty quiet though there was definitely noise from other guests coming and going (not much soundproofing). A good option if you need a place to stay for a night or two & don’t want to break the bank.
