Downtown SLO Inn - San Luis Obispo
Didn’t feel clean, bed was not comfortable, and the shower leaked water all over the bathroom. SLO needs more cheap hotel options so I want this place to succeed, but they’ve gotta put some care into it

nice basic room, clean and under new management. The inside bolt lock didn't work, but other side good value for the price
