I booked a room with 2 beds. I showed up about 10:20pm only to find out they gave my room to wrong person and they only had a single bed room available. I was with adult son. I asked how I get refund for difference since I booked 2 beds and they had no clue. I could not get receipt since I booked with Expedia. Expedia tried to call about the room but nobody answered. My kid had to sleep on roll away bed

Clean rooms. Mostly friendly staff. I was unfortunately in a room right next to elevator for three days and was unable to sleep due to constant noise. Plan accordingly.

This was our family first trip to San Luis Obispo, a very last minute choice. The area is gorgeous and also hotels can be pricey but La Cuesta Inn was reasonable, clean, the room was spacious, the bathroom impeccable , our room was on the 4th floor and we arrived late so the underground parking with the easy elevator access was great. Our room fronts the hwy but I was surprised the quietness, the view of the mountains at sunrise was breathtaking. Thank you for the breakfast. I definitely recommend it and will be staying there again in the future.

this is my first time here. great property and clean. i like my room, paid extra for a balcony and it has a nice view. the view from my other window is the trash dumpsters though which is yuck. asked for one hour late checkout but told would be 50.00 so that is disappointing. plenty to do in slo so i’ll figure it out while my daughter finishes her study session. Employees are very kind and engaging
