This is a low budget motel so the building is a little worn out but the needs are comfortable and the management is top notch.

Property is older but still has nice appeal. Room was clean, parking was good and safe, Manager was friendly and went beyond expectations to assure our accommodations met our needs. Stayed 2 nights and the price was competitive. cnr
Such a great hotel! Very friendly, professional and helpful staff. Room was so clean and quiet. Very close and walkable to downtown San Luis Obispo. Beach and beautiful trails are a very short drive away. Absolutely cannot beat this hotel, very affordable too!
The property is beautiful, both on the outside and in the rooms. The pictures don’t do it justice. The room was clean. Parking is available directly next to the rooms, making unloading the car very easy. It’s not a long walk from downtown San Luis Obispo.
Ultimately, it’s a great deal, I was surprised with how much we got given the affordable price!
As someone who's been poor all my life, I've become a connoisseur of cheap hotels. This stay was excellent for the price. I had low expectations, and they were significantly exceeded. This is the perfect place if you need a place to stay on a budget and aren't too concerned about amenities. Staff was friendly and unobtrusive
We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at Las Padres. The accommodations were just what we needed and we were pleasantly surprised at both the affordability and quality of the property. We will definitely be returning! Great location that is close to downtown SLO!
Enjoyed my room that had been totally renovated with all the conveniences.
Centrally located to downtown in easy
walking distance to all of the attractions.
It was easy to find and easy access from
the Freeway.
