Thankfully the staff was courteous and made my stay bearable however, the beds were hard, lumpy in some area of a queen size mattress. So uncomfortable I had to extend my stay in San Luis Obispo and deliberately chose to stay elsewhere. Again, it was nice interaction with the staff, professional and courteous thank you.

It was good enough. It wasn't spectacular—it's a Motel 6. Did the job. If I was back in the area, I'd be fine staying again.
