Stables Inn

Cute over night stay. Short walk to downtown. We checked in on a Wednesday and left the next morning. Took until the following Monday to release the deposit.

Paso Robles Getaway Nice & clean place. Bathroom & shower very small, but appeared as advertised. 4-stars for this quaint, quiet, friendly place with a laid-back Paso Robles feel. Easy walk (4 blocks) to beautiful city park square - with amazing range of eateries, drink/wine options, eclectic shops. Loved our stay!

My husband and I usually stay in Best Westerns, or typical nicer chain hotels for context on our hotel/motel expectations. We thought it would be romantic and fun to stay in more of an intimate setting for a weekend away in July in Paso. We came to town while the Mid State Fair was around, so we expected slightly elevated prices, but we paid $1,000 for two nights and we don't feel like the value was there, really at all. Firstly, we could've stayed almost a week in Pismo or any of the surrounding areas for that price... (Best Western down the road was booked up for our stay so can't compare that weekend specifically, but is currently showing $139/night as of 7/21) Secondly, on the note that a boutique motel is different than a chain hotel: We figured it's a cute, romantic motel and what the heck we never do that so why not! The website advertises a nice breakfast, coffee & tea, complimentary water, bath robes- a whole ordeal. Unfortunately, our "experience" was literally just the four walls of our room. The room itself was nothing special. It had mugs and water you could pay for if you wanted, the bathroom was teeeeeeny tiny (no counter space just a free standing sink, toilet, and small shower), no robes, no smores kits (advertised on website), no coffee or tea options, everything felt damp, and the shower and sink backed up all weekend whenever we used them (gross). Also, the walls were rather thin... 'nuff said. We got to breakfast about 8:30 or 9 both mornings and there was some activia yogurt, and granola, maybe a piece or two of some sort of bread left? The coffee machine was set out but there wasn't any cream left or anything like that, so we ended up eating out both mornings, which was frustrating when you are spending that kind of money on "the experience". At this point I was asking myself: "What experience? Listening to our eager-to- be-there neighbors? And trying not to ding our car on 'Love Island' in the middle of the parking lot?" We also weren't impressed by the motel's location in town. It's on the corner of a super busy street. The firepit is just a lil island in the middle of the already small parking lot, which is very cute but certainly not intimate. On a separate note, if you were dressed up at all, or wanting to walk to some of the eateries or antique stores it was a pretty decent walk. We just ended up driving everywhere. If you're dressed down, and or in tennis shoes it wasn't so bad, but ladies, are any of us going out to nice dinner in Paso in tennis shoes? No lol I really really wanted to like it, the concept is so cute, and Johanna Gaines herself could have designed the place, and I know it's a family run business, but it just felt all weekend like maybe it used to be nicer than it is now? It was literally the running joke of our trip: like, "did we just get the worst room?", "Are we on Prank'd?", Or we also repeated: "Did we just end up there on a super off weekend?" I don't know, regardless, we were u

Not a 5 Star Hotel but Cute and Welcoming Cute hotel but the Room was tiny. There was no microwave or coffee in room. No bathtub. No pool or hot tub. Courtyard was smaller than pictured two fire pits in the middle of parking lot. Not much privacy - rooms face each other and have thin shared cabin walls. Breakfast was yogurt or coffee cake with only 4 chairs in the tiny dining area … not many options. It was clean, cozy and walking distance to downtown. Staff was friendly. Everything was just smaller than expected.

Unfriendly experience Musty Rooms and bad circulation with air condition. Bathroom fan did not work

Super cute and comfy! Close to town. Very walkable area. Hosts super friendly and helpful. Will be back for sure!
