For the young at heart.
The hotel is very nice, old building being renovated. Our room was very small. The bed was not what we are used to, so sleeping was difficult. If we were younger we would have enjoyed it more being older comfortable sleep is everything.

Everything was perfect and the staff went above and beyond. Such a treat to be spoiled on a trip away from home. I just don't really want to say more. Its like that band you love and dont want others to know so it can be your thing, or in hopes they don't sell out. So come here! But can you check to make sure they have room for me before you book, because I'm coming back for sure

Lots of character.
Beautiful old building but very dark inside. Rooms are nicely decorated but very small. Bathroom / shower fans cannot be turned off inside the rooms which becomes really annoying if you’re spending any time in the room during the day. Lots of character and overall a nice stay. Beautiful bar where they serve amazing cocktails.

Granada Bistro Hotel SLO
Staff was very friendly and accommodating communication excellent. Hotel is old and charming many sitting areas and bar. Had an excellent dinner at Granada Bistro ONLY open for dinner Rooms are too small for 2 people. Bed didn’t seem like a queen. Parking is a challenge for a larger car Price is high price for the size of room and bed and no breakfast toilet paper was rough 1 ply.

Lovely Unique Boutique Hotel
Lovely boutique hotel- perfect for a romantic getaway. We chose a smaller room but it was comfy and luxurious. The upstairs communal outdoor patio was a lovely perch to drink wine and enjoy the delicious morning coffee and tea service. The bartender at the bistro prepared us some customized drinks and we enjoyed a fun conversation and afternoon snacks!
