The property was small with a lovely bar/dining area and an outside courtyard. The bedroom was very comfortable and nicely decorated. Great bed, linen and shower. A nice minibar if you were tempted. The service was very personal. Lovely helpful staff, such a lovely young team who couldn’t do enough for you. Complimentary drinks and nibbles at 5 pm a lovely touch. Breakfast filling with lovely tempting baking made on the premises

The host made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. The bunkhouse is very cute from the outside, set amongst rocks and cacti in a great country location. However it’s not until you enter that you can really appreciate how beautiful it is. The interior design, fittings and features are lovely. We all loved it.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming retreat, and it exceeded all our expectations. The view from the property is absolutely stunning, offering a picturesque landscape that nature lovers will truly appreciate. Whether it's the sunrise or sunset, the scenery is always breathtaking. The location is perfect for those seeking tranquility and a close connection with nature. Surrounded by lush greenery and serene landscapes, it's an ideal spot for relaxation and rejuvenation. One of the highlights of our stay was the delightful golden retrievers on the property. These friendly and playful dogs added an extra layer of warmth to the experience. They were always happy to see us and made us feel right at home. Their cheerful presence was a wonderful bonus to an already fantastic stay. The accommodation itself was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The amenities provided were more than sufficient, ensuring a comfortable and hassle-free stay. Overall, we highly recommend this place for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse themselves in nature. The combination of stunning views, a peaceful location, and the company of adorable golden retrievers made our stay truly memorable.

WE have visited San Luis Obipo many times and have walked by the Hotel San Luis Obispo. WE never booked it because of its high price. This time, tired of the overprced and often run-down hotels and motels in town we decided to spend more and book a room. We were very impressed with teh hotel design, teh larger, modern and comforatble room and all the amenites including apool taht was heated to be very comfortable. And the staff!- Wveryone was vey friendly and helpful. I spoke to one of the staff and complimented her and the hotel. One more thing- the next morning we planned to have Brunch at a local restaurant we know. We decied at teh last minute to have brunch at the hotel instead, to give it a try. We ordered the moked samon. Instead of being just the usual simple combination of salmon, cream cheese and bagel with maybe some tomotoes, capers, etc. this cama on a large plate with a big portion of salmon with pesto, really freash tomotoes, caper beriies, jalapenos, pickled onions, capers, Calabrian style red chili peppers, a salad and more. it was the absolutely best I've ever had, and we've been to many high-end restaurants. We thinkl the hotela nd restaurant hit a home run!

    The accommodations and staff were top tier. The front desk girl that checked us in was so kind and helpful during our booking process. She deserves a raise. The room was magical, and we will definitely book 222 again when we come back. Thank you Hotel Cerro for a wonderful weekend for my wife’s birthday. Cheers!

    The hotel is in a great location for exploring downtown SLO. Each of the staff was friendly and helpful, there was complimentary wine or bubbly after checking in and cookies in the afternoon. The morning breakfast had muffins and/or fruit laid out and a hot entree that was prepared upon request. Decor and accommodations were charming and added to the historic character. Afternoon light made the lobby a great place for reading or for swapping stories with fellow travelers.

    Sleeping accommodations are spartan (it's a hostel), but very clean. The shared restroom facilities were also very clean and worked well. The downstairs common areas were appealing and comfortable. The manager was friendly and easy to work with. The location (a block and a half from the Amtrak station) suited us perfectly. The "downtown" area of SLO is only a few blocks away.
