No one told me there was a parking charge and I was never given a parking permit. I ubered to the location, I shouldn’t have been charged for parking. I asked for an itemized receipt when I checked in and was told there isn’t one to give. I didn’t find out about the parking charge until I checked out. Pet charge is not reasonable.

Good place to stay … I don’t understand why we have to pay for parking overnight at $15/night. It’s not like it is hard to find parking in this area, and no one else (other than hotel guests) will park in this area. So, the parking fee is just another way to make guests pay more for the room.

I hated the fact that i called a week in advance to ask about having an early check in and was told the earliest they can schedule me for was 1:00 pm which i was happy with because this gave me time to drive there and get ready for a wedding i had to be at. I show up and the rude front desk lady told me that they dont do early check ins and there are no rooms available before i could finish speaking. I went back in to dispute this but i attempted to speak with someone else yet she insisted on helping me again, with a slight attitude adjustment but still rude. She proceeded to tell me that early check in were only a request and not scheduled even after i told her this is what i was told on the phone a week prior and that all check outs are at 11:00 am which gave them 2 hours to get a room ready for me. She attempted to tell me how they had a huge party (idaho college football team) as if that was my fault or like it was something that should affect my scheduled stay. I ended up getting a room an hour later than expected and was late to the wedding. I do not recommend this place because of the horrible and rude service. Next time dont tell customers that they can check in early. I will not be staying here again and will not recommend.

seemed pretty good, but not quite...
just as you arrive, you are faced with a (you must pay 15$ a night to park here) sign. this kind of ruined my whole stay. If they wanted 15.00 more, just charge 15$ more for the night, please don't nickel and dime me on trips. Just because (everyone is doing it), it does not make it seem ok. I parked in a taco lot next door and refused to pay the 30$ on principle. Now to our stay, the beds were spring, and cheap. I was sitting in a hammock basically, and should have asked for a different room. The bathroom had cracked tiles with a really poor repair done. (room 301) The free breakfast is funky. yes, you can have eggs your way. but the avocado toast has the pre mixed avocados on it, and they put WAY too much. The breakfast sandwich (egg, bacon, spinach, cheese, and avocado) why did they add avocado to this? it's just not that good. There is a starbucks, and there is a very nice crew that run the little breakfast kiosk. All in all, the hotel is clean, but old... The bad bed and cash grab for parking is one reason I would look elsewhere...

Hotel very clean and staff friendly. BE AWARE of the charge for parking each night @$15. Shame on Marriott. We already are paying a premium and then you charge your own guests to park on property. Last stay at a Marriott for our family.

Great place to stay in SLO
Stayed for a night to celebrate my husband’s birthday and this Marriott property did not disappoint! Front desk service was friendly and welcoming upon arrival. Our room was clean and comfy and was clean. Appreciated the included breakfast and wished we could have taken advantage of the pool but we didn’t have time. My kids enjoyed the gym and said everything worked well and was clean. Highly recommend staying here if you’re in the SLO area. It’s close to the university and downtown without feeling crowded. We stayed during Labor Day weekend and it was awesome!
