When we arrived at 2 PM, we could get our room immediately; unfortunately, the hotel had not granted my wish for a ground floor room which led to dragging suitcases onto two stairs, in a wing where floors did not have carpet and the walls were the bricks they built the place with. Not too happy with that, to me... more

I recently finished a long road trip across all of California. We stopped in San Luis Obispo for one night to break up the drive from Palo Alto to L.A. This hotel was a pleasant stay, and a good price considering most places in SLO are incredibly expensive. Pros - Very nice service at the front desk even though we... more

We spent one night at the Royal Oak on our way up the coast. The hotel was conveniently located just off the freeway, down the street from the Madonna Inn. The room was your standard room, with two queen beds. It was clean and comfortable. The exercise room was well-equipped. While the pool was not quite as clean as we... more

We weren't expecting much from this hotel, but it was nice and clean. Our view wasn't all that great, even if I asked for something nice, our patio door was overlooking the roof. The pool was a great thing since it was very hot outside and I enjoyed the business center, even though internet wasn't that up to speed. The... more

Stayed as a stopover from Napa to San Diego...a great choice! Very comfortable but the complimentary continental breakfast was a bit of a free-for-all as everyone seemed to be in the one room at the same time and there were too few tables/chairs. However, I have to mention the very helpful receptionist [orig fm Mexico] who recommended the excellent Tahoe... more

The Best Western Royal Oak was just about what I expected. It is an excellently maintained motel with everything in tip-top condition. "Charming" is not the first word that comes to mind. Nevertheless, my room, which overlooked the pool and had a pleasant view of the mountains was light-filled, spacious, comfortable, spotlessly clean, and a welcome place to return after... more

This is a lovely newer hotel located near the Madonna Inn and across the street from a shopping center. It is a quick five minutes from downtown San Luis Obispo. The place was very clean and the employees pleasant and helpful. Good continental breakfast..fresh fruit, waffles, bagels, juice, cereal...served in a pleasant breakfast room. Prices were very competitive. Overall it... more

We stayed at the Best Western to spend a day in San Luis Obispo on our way up the coast. I booked by calling the hotel directly. One of major requirements was a "pet friendly" hotel. We brought our golden retriever with us, and paid the hotel's $15/per pet fee. We paid an extra $10 for a pool view. Parking... more

We booked a two night stay through the hotel's website which gave us the best rate at the time. $94 per night. Check in was not a good experience. There was an older lady behind the counter that appeared new and it took her 10 minutes before she gave up and a more expeienced staffer was brought in to complete... more
