Garden Street Inn, A Kirkwood Collection Hotel

Our room “the lovers” was gorgeous.

I stayed for just one night but it was perfect! It was my first time staying at a little BnB and it was lovely. I arrived earlier than stated check in and was going to ask to do a luggage drop but Holly at reception let me check in early. Staff was very kind and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

Always love staying here. Come back every year. Breakfast was delicious. Staff is always excellent and very helpful!

It was my wife's birthday, so I booked two nights (Friday and Saturday) at the Garden Street Inn, as a surprise. We absolutely loved our stay. Beautiful room that included a great breakfast each morning. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. San Luis Obispo is a great town to visit and the Garden Street Inn is downtown and close to all the sites and restaurants.

Lovely inn and very helpful staff. Great location near downtown.

Great stay. Great location. Great breakfast. Recommended.

Breakfasts and coffee were delicious. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

Beautiful bed & breakfast. Very loud! Could not sleep. Would recommend going durind the week

Staff was lovely. The location was good. Right downtown with all the shops and restuarants in walking distance. The property is old and probably has not had an upgrade in a long time. Our room (Old Town) was disjointed (sink outside of the bathroom and the tub was cicra 1980 with four shower curtains). I took a shower and the water never got hot. Breakfast was fair. Parking was not optimal meaning we parked in the bank lot next door but needed to move the car before 8am so we would not get a ticket. The bed was small. We are spoiled by a king bed. This bed was 'queen', but felt more like a full. But the worst part was the noise during the night. We did not sleep at all. :( Street sweepers, trash trucks, loud cars. Make good choices.

Be aware the noisy at night, the hotel is near a bank parking lot which could be noisy at night. That's the only downside for me to stay here.

Outstanding facility with comfortable and quiet rooms. Parking is inconvenient with only one loading zone spot and a few blocks’ walk to either a paid parking garage or on-street free parking if you can find a spot. Breakfast was terrific. Hosts were gracious and helpful. Location is convenient walking distance to all of downtown. Will definitely stay again.

Wonderful location.

We stayed in the Walden room. Everything was great, except for bed. I think it’s time to replace mattress. Mattress was lumpy, and creaky. Very uncomfortable.

Our experience at Garden Street Inn was exceptional. Situated downtown, it offers easy access to numerous restaurants. The included made-to-order breakfast was excellent. Other guests were quiet, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel lacks its own parking lot, but there is a free loading/unloading zone in front, along with nearby free street parking and a pay parking garage. If parking isn't a concern, I highly recommend staying here. I wish all hotels treated their guests this well!

Thank you

Staff was helpful and breakfast was great

The Inn is beautiful. The orange trees in front are incredible. The staff were wonderful. The location is fantastic. I purposely booked a room with a bathtub, because I don’t have one at home and was really looking forward to some much needed relaxation. But the bathroom wasn’t great, to be honest. The bathtub itself was covered with big chips, like the coating had been damaged. I didn’t want to bathe in it. Also, breakfast was supposed to start at a certain time, but when I went down, they said it would be a 30 minute wait, just for pancakes and eggs for a few people. I wasn’t able to wait because I had plans. It would be helpful if the start time was more accurate. Again, the staff were lovely.

The only comment I would make is that the mirror above the sink is set up for someone 5'3", not anyone around 6'. Otherwise the place has old world charm only a block from the downtown.

Staff was very welcoming and nice. Place is a great walkable location. A mini fridge in the room would be nice to have.

Close to town and quiet
