10/10 Excellent

Comfortable like home

We always choose Garden St Inn when we are in SLO.
Autumn, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Inn is in an old historic building with modern conveniences like renovated rooms and nice bedding. Lots of places outside to sit and enjoy all the neighborhood trees and flowers. Walkable to downtown shops, restaurants and bars. Be sure to stay when there's a concert at the Fremont Theatre. No parking, street or garage.
PL, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Unfortunately despite the price tag competing with 4 and 5 star hotels the property was run down and old with a malfunctioning sink that did NOT drain and a very old bed that caused all kinds of neck and back pain; the shower curtain was coming off the wall, and the patio furniture was filthy dirty and unusable
Luigi, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We will be back

Lovely stay. Great location. Will be back!
