San Luis Obispo
Located above a brewpub and live-music venue, SLO Brew Lofts offer a unique urban stay in downtown. Apartments range from one to three bedrooms – the lofts are suitable for families or friends – and stylish decor is partnered by cool touches like a refrigerator stocked with SLO Brew's fine products, and record players with stacks of vintage vinyl.
Expect some noise from downstairs, especially on weekends.
