It was a really nice hotel especially for the price of the area! It was well made and kept and close to a lot of places to shop or eat. Only con was the water from the showers had one setting: HOT!! It burned me and was pretty much unusable.

We booked thru Hotels.com. When we arrived we were told of a $150 hotel hold fee for damages.. NO WHERE ON HOTELS.com. Does it indicate this.. threw our budget out the window.. also the HOTTUB was not functioning and had not for months… that was not listed either. hotel staff not professional. sweat shirts and eating at front desk. It was like an upgraded Motel 6… they can leave the light off… NEVER BE BACK

Stayed because it was closer to my daughter place. There was a little banging here there, but went away. Nobody bothered us. But the room had a smell to it. The bed underneath the comforter was still dirty. Good thing we bought our own blankets and pillows. Lady at the front counter wasn’t rude, but wasn’t really Show hospitality. Well, I stay here again no, not at all. There was some stains on the wall as well. There was a hole from opening the door, but they had it covered with black tape. There was no extra lock for the door. The cooler look like it was gonna come off the wall. There was a bad odor we didn’t know where it was coming from. Needs to be updated for sure on everything.

The staff was great. None of this is their fault. Could not find a room with working AC. There was several parties checking in at the same time. 2 of us were in the lobby trying to get another room because of this and another was on the phone. We were giving a box fan. Hot tub was still closed At this point. I feel like it’s deceptive to advertise a hot tub and ac. I travel for work and I am in about 70 different hotels over 200 nights a year. Roughly. The point of this is I have never seen ACs this old in a room. The knobs were removed with no wires going into the units. But there was newer wall controls. How they controlled them I have no idea. None of the ones we tried controlled anything on the unit. Strict signage about were you can eat breakfast but it’s only stale pastries and coffee. Which is pretty normal breakfast. But most places offering that don’t care if you leave with it or go up to your room with it.

Gave me a pool pass code at check-in, but no mention that Pool area was chained and padlocked with a sign, that said hot tub spa was in need of repair and not to used till further notice. I was very disappointed and choose hotel for the spa pictures online. Everything else was comfortable and spacious.

The real headline: there was what appeared to be feces on one of the two beds. The review: Checking in was fine. I had no delusions that this was the Ritz, but it had a 6 rating and Hotels.com said it was “Good.” I feel bamboozled by both the hotel and Hotels.com. The room was filthy, the shower was broken, there were multiple types of hair on the bathroom floor, the shower drain was broken, there was an old smashed spider on the wall, there were burn marks and bleach stains on the comforters, the box springs were falling apart, and, of course, there was what was pretty clearly a smear of poop on on of the sides of the bed. When I informed the front desk of all of this, and that we were not staying, they were completely unphased. I may as well have told them that I needed an extra towel. This was clearly far from a unique situation, and in looking other places for reviews we found that to be the case. It has a 1 on yelp… a 1! But I trusted Hotels.com, which I will not do again. Nor will I ever stay at this hotel again and I will warn all other people who are going to San Luis Obispo to avoid Lamplighter Inn at all costs until it is completely redone and owned by other people. Or maybe if it were bulldozed because camping in a tent on the ruble would likely be a more comfortable experience.

I wouldn’t waste my money staying here. The property is run down and needs a lot of maintenance. There were ants in the bathroom crawling out of the cracks in and around the shower. The ac didn’t work. The tv didn’t work. The room had a musty smell and the carpets were stained.

The hotel was clean and quiet, thete were only a few guests at the property as Cal Poly wasn't in session yet. The one draw back is there isn't any local channels on the tv menu. Nice staff!!

Nice room, comfortable beds. Can take a lot of time for elevators in morning and around checkout time. Also, ask for room not directly across from elevators as you can hear the whirring of the cables at all hours.

The air conditioning is not really working. We would like to change the room but they told us that they are sold out. Actually they are not. I saw a lot of empty parking spots. There are only about 4 cars in the parking lot. There are some insects in the room and a bit noisy. We also lost some items when we left our luggage in the room while traveling. When we got back, our luggage was open and we lost some items. We talked to the front desk but nothing happen. It was a bad experience for me and my group.
