San Luis Obispo Chamber of Commerce Visitor Information Center — Attraction in San Luis Obispo

Leaving this here so you all can go talk to one of your local businesses who seem to not care about visitors.

A real conversation I had with the front desk guy who hates his job, Bill, at the Lamplighter Inn. After waiting 15 minutes, he walks in with no acknowledgement that I'm standing there and when he does notice me it's like I had interrupted his favorite TV show:

Me: Hey. I'm in room 2105 and I picked up a rental car and I need to register it so I can park here. (Because every hotel I ever stayed at has you register your car).

Whoever manages this place, hire a...

My wife and I were visiting SLO on a Tues. afternoon, taking a stroll downtown. We passed by the "visitor center" and decided to go inside. We were the only people visiting at the time, so it wasn't busy. There was a woman sitting behind the counter. Not a very friendly person. Haughty or snobby is a better description. We both felt that she just wanted us to leave so she could be alone again. We travel a lot and visit many local "visitor centers". I have to say, this woman isn't doing anything to...

We visited SLO region for the first time and wanted to explore local vineyards not knowing much details. So we came to visitor centre and got great guidance and the warmest welcome by Keri. She basically made a whole day program around the vineyards for us so we didn't have to look for anything and waste time. So helpful and friendly! Thank you Keri! SLO...
