Five stars not enough !
A truly exceptional and friendly place to spend a few days in slo-chilled san luis obispo. Top of the review must be the staff, who were warm, friendly and helpful and the sort of people who made you feel welcomed and special. Initial perception of breakfast was slightly underwhelming after the common all you can eat offerings of most hotels… BUT here everything is top class, standouts include the best (homemade) croissants we have ever tasted, a changing daily choice of specials to order including granola, pancakes, french toast and frittata with different mini pastries, hardboiled eggs, orange juice and fruit. And a great bonus gesture, free hors d’oeuvres and a glass of wine or beer served every night between 5 and 6 in an innovative (very) happy hour to set up an exploration of slo’s many restaurants. Our los angeles based friends drove six hours to meet us - and they have vowed to return soon - without us. A rare find

I think the most important aspect about this property is the staff. They are exceptionally friendly & helpful. Jaycee even came to our room to help us figure out how to use the tv. But all of the staff are extremely friendly, courteous & helpful. Only two things I can think of could improve our trip: 1. Having access to regular channels, such as CBS, NBC, ABC & FOX; and 2. I couldn't get the air conditioner to get the room as cool as I like when I sleep. (But that actually may have been just operator error.) We loved the breakfast, the physical facility, and it's location. We very much enjoyed our stay, but most of all, we appreciated our interactions with the staff. They excel.

Mostly Charming hotel on the outskirts of town that is very reminiscent of many places in lovely France. It was mostly quiet. The decor was charming and the quiches and breakfast were really superb. Most staff were really good. It's just that one Staff person was though warm and friendly but a little scoldy about me putting food in the frig. I really paid a lot for this room. I hadn't done anything wrong, and when I tried to explain why this was off putting to staff, they did not exactly get why I found this a tad unpleasant.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The inn was quaint, with a great location within walking distance to downtown SLO, with clean, well appointed rooms and easy parking. Your staff went out of their way to make our stay pleasant, from allowing us to check in a little early, to providing great service during the evening reception and breakfast. The food was great, especially the house baked pastries and quiche.

Quaint bed and breakfast inn in walking distance to downtown SLO. The staff are all accommodating and pleasant. The rooms are well appointed, roomy, and quiet. The included late afternoon wine and appetizers and breakfast were delicious, with home-baked goods. Great place for a weekend stay.
