The hotel is conveniently located close to downtown and highway 101, offering easy access to explore San Luis Obispo. While the rooms were spacious and comfortable, the persistent noise disturbances and unpleasant odor were major drawbacks.
Rooms
6.0
The rooms were large and included a microwave, which was convenient. However, despite being 'nonsmoking,' there was a lingering smell of cigarettes and cat urine.
Service
7.0
The service was accommodating but nothing extraordinary. There seemed to be a lack of additional help available, and some interactions felt slightly unfriendly.
Location
8.0
The hotel's location was freeway close and in a quiet area, reasonably close to downtown for a walk. However, the surroundings were not aesthetically pleasing, with peeling cement and sand mounds.
Dining
5.0
The dining area, held in the 'lobby,' offered limited choices like Costco muffins and low-quality cereal. The breakfast options were underwhelming and lacked variety.
Facilities
6.0
The facilities were average, nothing stood out as exceptional. Lackluster dining options and room quality impacted the overall experience.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while spacious, were poorly maintained and had a lingering smell of cigarettes. Despite that, they were clean, comfortable, and provided a decent night's sleep. The service was lacking in friendliness and attentiveness, which affected the overall experience. The location was convenient, near the freeway entrance, but the dining options were disappointing with limited choices at breakfast.
