Best Western Casa Grande Inn

The best place to stay! It is the best value in the area. It feels like a luxury hotel. The staff are helpful and friendly. Since our first time staying here, it is our choice of hotels in the Pismo area! You won’t be disappointed!! less

We chose this hotel in Arroyo Grande when visiting San Luis Obispo because hotels and restaurants are more reasonable priced in Arroyo Grande, but it is only about 15 miles by 101 Freeway south of San Luis Obispo. This Best Western is a large property and appears to be clean and well maintained. It is done in Mission-style architecture and is an older style hotel with individual exterior entrance doors and somewhat sprawls on a hillside. The only criticism is that their breakfast room is a small separate building the size of a one-car garage, and can be crowded for the size of the facility; we recommend you go to breakfast early. Breakfast is the usual items of scrambled eggs, bacon, waffles, oatmeal, fruit, etc. and is served on disposable plates with plastic utensils. less

This is a great place if you are looking for something different. It has a very cool Spanish/Mexican vibe in both architecture and decor. While it is showing it's age in some details , it is a good value. Pool area and center courtyard are especially attractive. I enjoyed staying here. less

Stopped here for one night on our road trip South. Really liked the decor, fast and friendly check in. Room was huge with plenty of facilities. Breakfast was good and better than other hotels offered on our trip. 5-7 minute walk to restaurants. Price was good and much better value than others we looked at. Shower was broken, which we told them about when checking out but otherwise we enjoyed our stay here. less

Check in was easy and receptionist gave us good advice on restaurants. Was not recognized as a loyal member which was unusual. Went to our room which was a good size and comfortable. Before we unpacked we walked over to the Quarter Deck for a nice dinner then headed back to our room. As soon as we entered the room we heard a dog barking constantly in the room next door. We waited a while but it didn't stop so I went to reception and they said they would call the room. We figured there was no-one in the room and that's why the dog was barking. After another 20 minutes of barking we went back to reception and requested a room change which we were given and we were also told that the rooms in our area were not supposed to have pets. As we were moving to the new room we saw a lady and 2 kids head into the next room coming back from the pool. The kids were pretty noisy too so we were happy to move. We did have a comfortable quiet night in our new room, thankfully. We had been told there were 2 breakfast areas so we went into the one near the pool and it was pretty cramped so we headed over to reception to use the other one but were told it was closed as the hotel was not full so we had no choice but to go back to the other one. It was pretty busy with kids running around but we did manage to get 2 seats. We also saw the dog lady and her kids at the pool with the dog wrapped in a towel. This dog issue really spoiled our experience at what looked like was a very nice hotel. We may think twice before staying here again but were happy we avoided what could have been a noisy night. less
