Budget Inn San Luis Obispo receives largely critical reviews, primarily centered on cleanliness and maintenance issues. Many guests report that the rooms are outdated and often dirty, with specific mentions of unmopped floors and the presence of insects. Technical amenities are a frequent source of frustration, as the WiFi is described as highly unstable and the air conditioning units are prone to shutting off. While the front desk staff is often praised for being friendly and helpful, some guests have reported negative interactions with management during stressful situations. The location is the property's strongest asset, with many appreciating the short walk to downtown and the Mission. However, the lack of daily housekeeping and missing amenities like a pool lead many reviewers to suggest it is only suitable for those with very limited budgets.
