"This is great place to stay when you’re overnighting in San Luis Obispo… The owners are great hosts and welcome guests to their super-clean well-maintained property. The large rooms, swimming pool and jetted hot tub are big pluses— especially if you’ve been on the highway for hours. Easy to find also— it’s a block or two from the historic Madonna Inn."

"Ryan Cider and Bourbon met us as we parked. My dog Arthur quickly befriended the other 2 dogs. Ryan greeted us and showed us around the grounds and house. The views are spectacular. The house itself is tastefully furnished and items are clearly labeled. Amenities are top-notch and well thought out. There are multiple spices, coffee and cooking oil. The beds are extremely comfortable and we sleep soundly. We did not want to leave the house!! I enjoyed meeting the tortoise and viewing the koi pot....
