Very underwhelming and I did not receive what I booked
Pros:

Location was great.

Cons:

The beds were too hard and uncomfortable. The room was very dated. I booked a pool view room and that is not what I got.

Pros:

Overall, everything went well. I did have one small issue but it was taken care of. Our room was not cleaned the first day after it was requested but it did get done the next day.

Would probably look for an alternative if we visited SLO again.
Pros:

Room was very comfortable; I enjoyed the hot tub

Cons:

The fact that we had to go outside to get to the lobby from our room, and to get to the breakfast area. What if there was a downpour?

Pros:

Es war alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit. Besonders gut war der heiße Jacuzzi nach unserer Wanderung auf dem Bishop Peak. Am ersten Abend gab es kostenloses Popcorn und Cookies - sehr lecker. Beim Frühstück gab es neben dem üblichen Angebot verschiedene Säfte und frischen Joghurt.

Bonito y agradable
Pros:

Bonito lugar

Cons:

Pague por una habitación con vista a la piscina y me dieron una q tenía en frente un kiosko, cundo llegué, la chica de la recepción fue amable y me preguntó en qué piso quería lauabitacion, le dije q el tercero y me dio esta habitación en el segundo, luego bajé a decirle q había pagado por una con vista a la piscina y me dijo q solo había una disponible en el mismo piso pero al otro extremo y bueno aunq no era con vista 100% al frente estaba mejor q la primera y podía ver un poco a la piscina.
Y dijo q mi reserva o era con vista a la piscina, así q no se cual es la comunicación de Booking con el hotel y las ofertas q ofrece, de resto todo muy bien, muy bonito y la sra Rosalina de la cafetería fue muy amable.
