Reviews
Visitors generally found the Sands Inn & Suites to be clean and pet-friendly, with some praising the friendly staff and convenient location. However, some guests were disappointed by the hotel's aged condition, such as worn furnishings, poor soundproofing, and maintenance issues.

- MichelleJul 23, 2023Easy to navigate with a dog
Great location for a quick walk with the dog for potty breaks. Great that they allow you to leave your pet in the room as needed. There were also several dog-friendly restaurants within walking distance.
- AnyaNov 9, 2022Wonderful Hotel and Very Clean
I will definitely be staying at the Sand Inn & Suites in San Luis Obispo again. The rooms were really clean, better than I expected, the staff was really friendly, and the location is perfect to the college and downtown SLO.
- LydiaDec 5, 2021Run down and overpriced
I could feel the bed springs and had a miserable night. The bathroom heater doesn’t work. Magnifying mirror is 6 ft up the wall. There was gunk on the light switch. I’ve stayed in worse places but not for $200 a night. $145 with taxes brought us to $200 and we just wished we had gone with Motel 6 at $65. I hate to leave a bad review when the travel industry has suffered, but we shouldn’t have to sacrifice quality to bring our pups with us.
- JustinOct 12, 2020Somewhat disappointing
Wish I could be more positive - but the room was neglected - missing lightbulbs - damaged furniture - saggy mattress. Definitely very clean - not a great value.
- BrianJan 20, 2020Avoid this place
The walls are truly paper thin. If it isn’t the people above you stomping around, it’s being able to hear every word of a conversation in the room next to you. Or, it’s a car door slamming outside the room, or the door in the room next to you being shut with a loud boom. I’ve stayed in hundreds of hotels and have never had a more restless night of sleep being constantly woken up. I needed to find a power outlet and looked behind the bed. That was a mistake. There was a plastic spoon, hundreds of crumbs and dirt. It hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. I was afraid to look under the bed. The water was literally trickling out of the shower head. It was almost comical seeing the water dribble out, except for the fact we couldn’t take a shower during our stay. The hotel uses a bot to text you how things are going and we addressed this the first day but absolutely nothing was done. I will never stay here again.
- JessDec 4, 2019Perfect space for the night with a pup!
Great value and pretty clean for a dog friendly hotel! Relief area was more than enough for my 2-yr old pup as well. Would stay here again!
- LizabethOct 7, 2019Disappointed
We've stayed at this establishment several times now and always had a good experience. We are giving it a 2 because the staff have always been nice, helpful and pleasant. They provide continental breakfast included with your room and bake fresh cookies daily and for the money the rooms are fairly good sized. They are accepting of pets, the pet fee is very reasonable and they don't have a size limitation. The hotel itself has become a bit run down. The rooms seem clean, but our sink wouldn't drain and although we requested maintenance, it didn't drain properly for the extent of our stay which indicates it was never got repaired. The A/C was loud and smelled of mildew. There was a rag stuffed in a hole in the wall under the desk. The bathroom window didn't open and close properly. The front window screen was damaged as if someone had tried to break in and the door handle fell off. Needless to say, it was a bit of a disappointment.
- David bFeb 22, 2019Good Stay
Nice room, good breakfast, breakfast patio, nice staff, close to everything
Noisy- lots of people & movement - MarcusSep 29, 2018First Doggy Trip with our girl
We were so stressed to go on our first trip with our little maltipoo of a girl. We searched for months trying to zero it down to a place with good reviews. This place did and it worked out for us great. The hotel and check-in was nice. We chose a suite so we could have a large room for her to roam around. The place was very clean and the bedding was great. My knocks: 1) the bathroom was small and the shower pressure was weak and 2) paper-thin walls. We could hear the people talking and snoring next door. We were lucky we had a end room, so only neighbors on one side. It helped because our girl is bark-happy. She barked a fair share until the neighbors settled down around 11 PM. The continental breakfast was good. SLO is a great destination anyway. We'll definitely do it again, now that we're not newbies anymore.
