Beautiful Walk to Downtown from European Flat.
We have a wonderful open floor plan with 270 degree views and a roof deck with 360 degree views of the beautiful San Luis Obispo mountains- Terrace Hill, Bishop Beak, Madonna, etc... Guests have access to the roof deck, two outdoor balconies, shared patio next to the elevator, free parking on Bridge street as well as an assigned and guest parking on the Los Osos Street side. I may not get a chance to meet you but I’m available via text, phone or AirBnB messaging during your stay. The house is in San Luis Obispo next door to Terrace Hill. A bike trail leads across the bridge and downtown to Morro Street, where there’s delicious Italian food at Cafe Roma and an organic breakfast and lunch at Sally Loos. You can walk downtown, grab the bus at the train station or hop on the train to Northern and southern CA all within walking distance. Enjoy spectacular sunrises and sunsets from the roof deck. A great quick hike to Terrace Hill on the other side of the bridge.
