Their breakfasts were honestly the highlight of my stay in SLO. It represented the area very well, being wholesome and worldly. Fantastic job!
Enjoying breakfast by the fireplace, reading a book on Met Operas. Menu was: poached eggs on a bed of hummus and arugula, freshly-squeezed orange juice, puff pastries of strawberry with cream cheese; lots of fresh cutup fruit

Room was clean, but toilet chain kept coming off and water leaked out from shower. Breakfast was good. It would have been nice if they had hot water and coffee earlier than 8 am. The inn was in an awesome location and the downstairs sitting room was nice.

This inn was so perfect for what I needed! I needed a lovely/ comfortable/ cozy inn for a couple of nights in a good, safe and walkable location. It was wonderful! Staff was so welcoming and accommodating, the room was cozy and clean, and the claw foot bathtub was divine! If I am in SLO again, I will 100% stay here!

Shower is a safety hazard. Requieres you to clear a 2x2ft edge of the bathtub. No eails, no step through anything. How it passes safety inspections is beyond me. Also most be the smallest queen size bed ever made

Tv not in bedroom side if that matters but will def stay again. Staff super friendly
