Top Cuesta College Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham San Luis Obispo Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I've stayed in a few places in SLO, but plan to stay here again and will recommend this hotel."

Sands Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room Easy parking lot"

Quality Suites Downtown San Luis Obispo

10/10 Excellent

"We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel, especially considering the price! Check-in was quick and easy, and there was plenty of parking available on-site. The room was very clean and spacious, with a separate living room, which was a nice bonus. Having a refrigerator and microwave was especially convenient after a long day of traveling. There is a jacuzzi and pool as well and apparently happy hour too but we reached pretty late so missed these facilities. The breakfast was actually better than what we’ve had at many Marriott hotels. The food staff and administrative staff were also very friendly, helpful, and welcoming, which made the stay even better. The location was another big plus, it’s just minutes from Cal Poly and several other local attractions, making it very convenient for exploring the area. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and were very happy with the experience. Great value for the price, and we would definitely recommend this hotel!"

"Everything was great but the shower body wash never got re-filled. AC was a bit noisy."

The Wayfarer San Luis Obispo, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and cute. The staff were super helpful and kind. The gym was SO tiny! I realize many people will go outside to exercise, however, I was looking for a weight rack and there was not one. They had 1 treadmill, 1 elliptical, and one peloton bike plus a yoga mat. That was it! Take a room and convert and get some weights. Other than the exercise room, everything else was nice."
