Holiday Inn Express & Suites Atascadero
4.4/5102 Reviews

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Atascadero

Atascadero|2.98km from downtown
Nice modern newer hotel in Atascadero, convenient for visiting Paso Robles, Morro Bay, SLO and Avila Beach (as long as you have a car). Minutes from the 101. PROS: Plenty of free parking, well lit. Modern, clean, newer hotel with up-to-date decor. Friendly front-desk person. Pool, gym, business center and breakfast included. Nice spacious breakfast area. Wall Street Journal available in lobby. Quiet stay until our last night when we had to call the front desk twice when a rabble of people were being very loud on our floor after 'Quiet Hours'. Vending machines and small shop with essentials available downstairs. CONS: I was not impressed that they don't offer housekeeping/a room refresh unless you're staying more than 5 days, although there was the option to ask for new towels at the front desk. When you're paying around the $200/night mark, you expect to come back at the end of a busy day to have at least your bed made and the room refreshed. I was told that 'People like the fact nobody enters the room while they're gone'. While this is one advantage, this is basically post-Covid corporate greed speak for 'It's a good excuse to not spend money and hire people to clean and make back some money we lost'. If I don't get my room cleaned, I might as well rent a room in someone's house through an on-line app. Breakfast food was your typical hotel chain buffet with sugary yogurts, cheap breads/bagels, rubbery eggs, brown spotted bananas, etc. When are hotels going to start offering more quality food? At least it's something to put in your belly before you go out for the day and you don't have to traipse the streets looking for breakfast. All-day coffee and tea in the lobby would be a nice touch like some other chains offer. I found the bathroom dimly lit, despite a light around the mirror. The light in the room was more natural for applying make-up. If you found this review useful, please click the thank button.

Pismo Beach|0.42km from downtown
I get this was a cheaper hotel during the week, and weekends the price doubled. The location is great, walk to everything. There's a sign saying don't have your TV loud, especially after 9pm. And no guests after 9 pm. And the front desk is closed at 9pm. Yes, we could hear our neighbors' TV in our room, even though they weren't loud. So we had to turn ours on just to drown theirs out. Lots of spackling on the walls, needs to be painted. The front desk wasn't nice to us, at all. As if we made our keys not work on purpose. Not my fault if the keys don't work (twice in the same day), and not my fault if my key doesn't work at 9pm when the front desk is closed. Can't imagine if I had come in later than 9pm. No security/safety latch on the door. I tried a door stopper, didn't work. The worst is I thought I had a bad cold, coughing with lots of mucus, even though I took Sudafed during the day and Benadryl at night. As soon as I spent one night at home my symptoms have almost disappeared. I think the fan system has mold in it and caused my symptoms since I was breathing it all night. And you need the fan system either heat or AC to drown out all the noises. Since I read reviews here and some said the front desk was very nice I'm curious: were the reviews by people who actually stayed there? was the front desk profiling us and just didn't like us? I get it's a cheap hotel, I don't get the rudeness. Pay a little more and go somewhere else. I loved Pismo Beach and will probably go back, to a different hotel! Had I not had the congestion and breathing issues, I would have not reviewed this hotel, just not return. I don't want someone else to feel sick on their getaway and have my experience.

Holiday Inn Express Grover Beach-Pismo Beach Area

Grover Beach|3.08km from Pismo State Beach
First, I want to say Thumb Up to the manager that actually read this column and corrected the breakfast complaint by getting the HI famous Cinnamon Rolls back to the breakfast menu. Our family of 4 stayed 1 night after visiting Santa Barbara and Solvang. Check in is speedy because we did the online check in. We are assigned to the Chablis building on second floor Room 200 and I actually paid extra to have balcony as this is our first time staying in hotel after the pandemic. For 2 years, we haven’t the confidence to travel and stay in hotel till recently all members in the family are fully vaccinated with my husband and I have our booster shot and the 2 teenagers have at least 2 shots as well as the pandemic seem not to morph into common flu. Spacious room and love that a built in area that one can open the luggage easily and there are built in hanger/hook that we can hang hat, jacket and handbag! I found this feature also in the HI Fisherman Wharf. Front desk person is responsive to needs after entered into room, we needed extra towels and a razor though we didn’t received in the room because delivered to the wrong room and we had to walk back to lobby to get them. I am glad that the front desk communicated to us why the items not delivered. We understand the mistake but we appreciate the communication so we know that the items are delivered except to the wrong room. Might want to send someone to fix the handle of the drawers on the bottom, loose and crooked to the side of pulled. Also, the bath tub handle, the water came out from top and bottom this the water pressure very low coming out from the shower head, this needs fixing. Sorry, we should have told the front desk when we checked out. Love the newly added cinnamon rolls and they have the auto made pancake! Hooray, you bring back one of the most significant features of HI complimentary breakfast! I am not sure I am being greedy to ask for waffles in the future? No need self made, just pre-made a small batch, don’t use the bought from store pre-made as we can taste frozen and fresh from waffle iron. That is if can accommodate as I am waffle rather than pancake eater. Overall, LOVE this property and highly recommend if you are visiting Solvang, Santa Barbara or SLO, stop at this property as the management does seem to care about the comfort of the guests and actually reading this column to see can improve. For this, please support this property if you are around the area visiting and need a place to rest. It is a very nice hotel!

Carlton Hotel
4.4/5102 Reviews
The location is good, the bathroom has a jacuzzi, the room is quite big but the decoration is general, the Christmas holiday restaurant is closed, the surrounding is the same, relatively speaking, the price is low, family travel is not recommended.
The Grove at Pismo Beach
3.5/5103 Reviews
The hotel is next door to Ole but does not participate in UnionPay events and does not accept UnionPay cards. The hotel front desk is very good. Changing rooms after check-in is also changed with enthusiasm. Breakfast is the same in the United States, and air conditioning noise is also a national feature. The scenery is really beautiful.
American Inn - Grover Beach - Pismo Beach
3.9/599 Reviews
Frishly renovated and clean! No more comparison with the pictures and reviews here. We were here in June 2022. Very beautiful bright clean rooms very nice renter. Pricefully all right 70USD per night is not much. Very good location near the beach (10min walk). Super just recommend
Ocean Palms Motel
4.2/5101 Reviews
The motel was a little pleasantly surprised. The bedding was very clean. When I came in, I found that the bed had folded two white swans with a towel. And the location is good, just found out after checking out, you can see the beach in front of the hotel, very close. But the front desk charged a 5.65 service fee, saying that it must be charged for booking hotels online. And the old man at the front desk looked a little bad
Edgewater Inn and Suites
4.1/5104 Reviews
The hotel is located on a beautiful seaside, surrounded by mountains and sea. The scenery is beautiful. The service at the front desk is friendly. Free coffee and snacks are provided in the lobby. Free parking is available. The free breakfast is simple, but delicious fruits are also provided.
Avenue Inn Downtown San Luis Obispo
4.1/5100 Reviews
Every Thursday, there is FAMER MARKET, but unfortunately we bought and bought and did not catch up. Seeing the mess on the road, it must be very lively, so sorry. The location is very good, you can go to FM. But what do you say about the facilities of this hotel, in fact, it is to open a room for young Californian workers, haha! The standard room is our five-foot bed. The family is a little small and the photos look slightly larger. Family trips, recommended twin beds, don't blindly believe in the old KING SIZE, not all hotels.
