University Inn at San Luis Obispo

Okay, this is not a 5 Star resort, but for the price in the area, I thought the accommodations were excellent. I spoke by telephone with the owner/manager to ask for a room near the office and he politely granted my request. Check in took about two minutes. My room was immaculate. The shower was great, the bed was comfortable and besides a small refrigerator and microwave, there was a 55(?) inch TV. It appears the rooms have all been renovated, but the parking lot is a little rough. I'm confident that will be taken care of soon. Checking out took only a few seconds. I liked the property well enough that I have already made a reservation for my next visit to SLO.

Basic room BUT the bed is super comfortable and entire room and bathroom were spotless. Housekeeping brought clean towels daily, which were very thick and absorbent (not the usual for a budget place). No coffee in the room but the lobby had a Keurig machine with very good coffee. The breakfast offered a sausage egg muffin, a few varieties of Danish pastry and bananas. We were pleased with this place and would stay again.

The room was clean and big. Bed and pillows were comfortable. The bathroom had a lot of space. It was very close to a good restaurant, were we went to have dinner. Although breakfast was available, we've just picked up something to get back to the road.

Good quiet location. Clean rooms with plank flooring, fridge and microwave.

I am glad I booked according to reviews and not stars. This is rated 2 stars but stood up as a better value and just as comfortable as one rated 3 stars. The staff were all exceptionally welcoming and helpful, the property was all remodeled tastefully and comfortably, and we were able to walk to town.
