The Inn is so cute and the rooms very clean but beware, I booked a room with a fireplace option and the fireplace did not work. So call before you book if you want a room with a working fireplace. The staff was excellent and the breakfast in the morning was great.

Its a beautiful b&b. There wasn't anyone there when i checked in. They were off property and I had to call and wait for them to arrive. That was a pain, parking is inconvenient. Other than that I'd stay again. Its a beautiful home.

The place is very nice, we had a bad experience with breakfast, after ordering the only choice and obtaining a number we didn’t realise the order was forgotten, we waited patiently and finally asked about the status. The server said she just forgot and said she would be get on it right away. This put us behind schedule for the day.

Lovely hotel and great location.

Lovely historic building right in downtown SLO with parking close by. We had an amazing claw foot tub which my husband was a little concerned about getting in and out of. Delicious breakfast made on-site.

Best place to stay in downtown SLO

Great atmosphere, close to everything, and a top notch staff. Parking is at a nearby city structure, and overnight parking cost me $16. Also, some of the room descriptions on hotels.com are inaccurate.
