My stay at the Hampton Inn & Suites San Luis Obispo was mixed. I appreciated the clean environment and the complimentary breakfast, which offered a decent variety. However, I faced significant issues with the prepayment process that left me quite frustrated, even though the staff was generally helpful. Overall, while the experience had its highlights, the hassle overshadowed the positives.

My stay at the Hampton Inn & Suites San Luis Obispo was enjoyable overall, but there were some drawbacks. The friendliness and professionalism of the staff stood out, making the experience pleasant. However, noise levels from adjacent rooms disrupted my sleep, and the room itself could use some updates. The breakfast options were decent, though the serving style felt a bit lacking given the price.

Rooms
6.0
The room I stayed in was reasonably comfortable, but it felt a bit dated and lacked a modern touch. I experienced noise disturbances from above and below, which interrupted my sleep. Their advertised suites essentially just include a love seat instead of significant space.
Service
8.0
The hotel staff were exceptionally friendly and engaging, always willing to assist with any requests. However, I did experience a delay in housekeeping that could have been better managed.
Location
8.0
The hotel is conveniently located just off Highway 101, making it easy to access local attractions. It was a short drive to downtown, which suited my plans well.
Dining
7.0
Breakfast options included various cereals and healthy choices like fresh juices. While I found the breakfast to be satisfactory, I would have preferred more traditional eggs instead of the omelets offered.
Facilities

The hotel's indoor pool and jacuzzi were nice additions to my stay, providing a relaxing area to unwind after a day out. However, I found the Wi-Fi to be sometimes patchy, affecting my ability to connect as needed.

I had a mixed experience at Hampton Inn & Suites in San Luis Obispo. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made a difference, but I contended with a frustrating prepayment issue that took a lot of time to resolve. The cleanliness of my room was decent, although there were some concerns like hair in the tub. Overall, I can't say I would recommend this hotel due to the hassle I dealt with during my stay.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms were on point, making it a comfortable choice. However, the breakfast was below par, and the dining staff seemed overwhelmed during peak hours. While the location is convenient for quick stops, I found the service could have been friendlier and more accommodating.
