The location was great, nearby to most everything or a short drive. The room was good, it could of been cleaned better, there were crumbs on the tv remote and side tables were a little dusty. Other then that, we had everything we needed and our stay was comfortable for two tonights.

We like this hotel. This is the 3rd time we've stayed here and every other time was great. We specifically booked this time to sit by the firepit and sit in the jacuzzi and use the pool. When we arrived at 3pm on Saturday, the pool was closed, and the jacuzzi was cold and the firepit wasn't working. My wife told the front desk person, who said "sorry." A maintenance worker came out and said "the jacuzzi was turned off, I turned it on, it won't be hot for a few hours." My wife said "this is like going to Disneyland and finding out your favorite ride is not working." As I said, we choose to come here. We would assume your staff in the morning, especially on a Saturday, would check to see if the jacuzzi was turned on or not. Not what we expected.

Was very happy, pleased, and satisfied with my stay at the best Western Royal Oak in San Luis Obispo, California. The room was spacious and comfortable and cozy. My wife and I had a wonderful time. Great staff awesome service kind and very happy people would definitely stay there over and over again. The accommodation was amazing. My only critique that I would make is the toilet in our bathroom was a little too short. I’m a taller guy, if they could just raise the toilet a few inches that would be great but the cleanliness the hospitality and the friendliness was fantastic.
