Pros:

It’s a fancy new hotel with nice modern decor.

Cons:

There was a big mechanic humming noise. Then we had to ask for a different room in order to be able to sleep. The new room has no mechanic noise at night but in the morning, a loud jackhammer noise coming from the wall woke all of us up.

Pros:

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.

Pros:

I was really excited to stay here because of the walkability and how cute it looked. However I think we had the absolute worst room possible. Don’t stay in room 209. It’s the only room that shares a wall to the gym and the room starts rattling at 5am or so from people dropping weights. Also the thermostat didn’t work so we went downstairs to tell the front desk and they set the room to 68 but it was absolutely freezing and if I turned it off it just turned back on because they had to set it from the front desk. We had to go down at 5am to tell them to turn it up or let us turn it off. I’ve just never slept so bad. Don’t stay in that room whatever you do.

Disappointing 3-day stay
Pros:

Were offered a discount of 20% when we checked in as we are Cal Poly parents, completed the necessary form online but at checkout were denied the discount. Staff claimed it was because we prepaid through 3rd party. They should write this on their website!! This is not a hotel to stay for comfort, room is not cozy at all. No drawers to unpack--small drawer next to bed. A/C blows directly on bed & sofa. Hi Bar was inaccessible Fri night due to capacity so that was disappointing. Good for one night, 3 was too many. Would not stay again, too much money for not much comfort. Pool area lovely. Great location.

Pros:

Beautiful hotel with exceptional service. Perfect location in downtown to walk to everything. Loved all the little extras that made you feel taken care of like the water ready in the fridge, the nesspresso machine, couple snacks, free coffee downstairs and water refills by the ice machines. I can tell how clean a place is by how dirty my toddlers feet get from the floors and they stayed clean! Definitely will be my go to place when visiting my daughter.
