We usually stop here overnight while driving the California coast. Exit 204 off Highway 101 leads to Monterey Street and this hotel/motel is only a few blocks off the freeway. Our rooms have been clean and well-stocked, although one thermostat was a minor puzzle at first. We had to start the fan before anything else worked. Seemed odd. Many-channel cable... More

We had four adults in a 2 bedroom suite. The room never had enough towels and we had to call everyday. Also there was 1 shampoo as well as a lack of coffee. At the breakfast we had to wait every morning for the scrambled eggs and meat. We usually state at Comfort Inns and this was the worst service... More

On this car trip, we spent 9 nights in hotels and this was our least favorite in comparison to all of them, but we would stay here again. It was clean and the beds were wonderful but overall, the facility needs some updating. We had three different people staffing and they were competent but one could have been friendlier; one... More

I have stayed in this hotel once last year and everything was okay. It was safe and relatively clean. However, I am currently trying to set up wedding blocks for my upcoming wedding and trying to deal with the Comfort Inn Lamplighter has been awful. I stopped in to the hotel last November, talked to a very nice man at... More

We have stayed at Comfort Inns on and off for years. This one didn't disappoint us although it showed it's age in places. The towels were larger and thicker than most others we had stayed in, the bed was comfy, and breakfast had more offerings than other others in the chain. The one bothersome thing was that as we were... More

You get what you pay for! Our room was clean and tidy, the window over looked the pool. We were only here for 2 nights and it was great for our needs. The breakfast is free, but slightly dubious!! Bacon and scrambled eggs from a microwave by the sound of the ping before the lady restocked the hot food!! But... More

The room as so old and out dated. It looked fairly clean, but it smelled old and musty. It smelled like they tried to shampoo the carpet but left it very wet and it never dried completely. There was only a little window air conditioner which could not come close to regulating the room temperature. We are always on the... More

Hotels were quite full in SBP this day in mid-August. Made a reservation at this Comfort Inn. The room turned out to be in sort of an annex out back, that might have been a converted apartment building. The place was a dump. Not only that, the was room was dirty, the bathtub had lots of hairs from somebody's previous... More

We stayed overnight in this motel. It is a configuration of two or three motels that have different names but share the same front office, confusing. Room was clean, staff friendly and breakfast ok. The place was reasonable, within walking distance of the SLO Farmers Market--recommend you you go there. More

No one thinks to ask if a hotel was built as that brand when they book a reservation. Especially if they just book it on the internet as I did. I didn't think about that last word "Lamplighter", which meant nothing to me. Turns out it means that it used to be a "Lamplighter Inn" with none of the Comfort... More
