Wonderful experience! Beautifully restored 140 year old hotel with 13 unique and eclectic guest rooms in the heart of downtown San Luis Obispo. Terrific staff! Wine in the afternoons, cooked-to-order breakfast. Thoroughly delightful experience; highly recommended!!

Very tiny rooms. No fridge or safe in the room, small TV... Overall it felt like a bedroom at your grandmas house vs. an actual hotel. Cute ambiance though and free breakfast was nice but thought it was too expensive for the kind of room we got.

Cute building, nice rooms, comfy bed. Liked the outdoor seating options as well as the tasty breakfast. It’s a convenient location in downtown that lets you walk everywhere. But also a bit pricey for everything you get - I chalk it up to location & convenience. Overall great stay & would consider staying again when doing things in downtown SLO.

Outstanding facility with comfortable and quiet rooms. Parking is inconvenient with only one loading zone spot and a few blocks’ walk to either a paid parking garage or on-street free parking if you can find a spot. Breakfast was terrific. Hosts were gracious and helpful. Location is convenient walking distance to all of downtown. Will definitely stay again.

Our experience at Garden Street Inn was exceptional. Situated downtown, it offers easy access to numerous restaurants. The included made-to-order breakfast was excellent. Other guests were quiet, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel lacks its own parking lot, but there is a free loading/unloading zone in front, along with nearby free street parking and a pay parking garage. If parking isn't a concern, I highly recommend staying here. I wish all hotels treated their guests this well!
