Their breakfasts were honestly the highlight of my stay in SLO. It represented the area very well, being wholesome and worldly. Fantastic job!
Enjoying breakfast by the fireplace, reading a book on Met Operas. Menu was: poached eggs on a bed of hummus and arugula, freshly-squeezed orange juice, puff pastries of strawberry with cream cheese; lots of fresh cutup fruit

Staff was basically non existent. Reception was closed and staff were on break or something, which made check in challenging. Same with check out. Staff was cooking and no one was available to check out. Property was nice and clean.
