This was without question the cleanest pet friendly unit we have ever stayed in! The location is close to downtown and easily walkable. The hosts were very attentive and truly cared about our experience. They were very easy to communicate with which made the check-in and check out process very easy.
Great stay! I didn't see this in the listing, but It IS on a main road and road traffic can be a bit loud. The driveway is also a bit tricky to get in and out of, but overall the property is great!! The location is central to everything in SLO and we had a great time. GO to the farmers market if you are there on a Thursday night!

Great stay in SLO
This was a great place to stay while visiting my son at Cal Poly. Very clean, had everything we needed. Super convenient to downtown, great location.
Thanks for the great stay!
We had a great stay at the Layzie Dayzie for three nights. It had everything we needed and was especially nice to find a place that is truly pet friendly. The space was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and there were thoughtful touches throughout that made it feel welcoming.The location was convenient for getting around and exploring the area, which made our trip easy and relaxing. The hosts were also very responsive and easy to communicate with.Overall, a comfortable and well-equipped place to stay—we’re looking forward to coming back again someday!
This property is exactly as advertised. It is a very cozy, comfortable house. It is clear the hosts have an understanding of the traveler's needs- the kitchen is well stocked, the beds are quite comfortable. I would certainly stay again and would highly recommend to fellow travelers.

We enjoyed our stay!
We stayed for a quick 2 night trip. The owners were great to book with. The property was very well prepared for our stay as the home was very clean and fully stocked with all the essentials...plus some! I'd rent this property again without hesitation.

Great house
Beautifully decorated, comfortable home. Kitchen was fully equipped with lots of extras. Friendly, helpful hosts. Location gave quick access in all directions.
It was a lovely and clean home. Close to downtown and some good restaurants. Very well stocked with all the necessities. Our only small complaint was how loud and busy the street was. Aside from that it was perfect.
Just enjoyed 2 nights with a friend in this lovely home. The house was spotlessly clean and tidy, and has been set up with so many wonderful extra touches. The couch is comfy and there are TVs in the living room and both bedrooms, . There is a full in the kitchen including a good size fridge with everything you might need to cook full meals, though there are plenty of great places to eat within a mile or two. The beds are very comfortable, with lots of extra blankets available, and having private driveway parking felt perfect. The host communication was easy and they were available via text if we'd had any issues. If you're looking for a cosy and convenient small home in SLO, this is the one!

Very relaxing stay
The home was comfortable, it was clean, and we were able to enjoy relaxing with the whole family.
We had a great stay at the Layzie Dayzie. The place was super clean and the kitchen was amazingly well stocked with well labeled cabinets so it was easy to find everything. They also had a variety of tea available and hot cocoa. Couldn't ask for a better location. Just over a 1 mile walk to downtown. Cant say enough about the hosts. They were very kind and responded to my questions right away. We definitely plan on coming back!

Great deal!
This is a great location for the price. We were in town for a tour of Cal Poly. With the air mattress and twin beds set up as a king size, the sleeping accommodations met our needs, this is a great amenity allowing us to stay in a more affordable option in an expensive area. We walked downtown for dinner, and to coffee in the AM. The home was very clean and had many conveniences - USB plugs, keurig, washcloths for makeup removal, plenty of blankets, the fridge was even stocked with La Croix! A couple of improvements could be made - it would have been nice to have a fitted sheet that covered both air mattresses to help it function as one larger mattress (like how the two twins can be set up as a king size). The mattress in the primary bedroom had several squeaky springs which made it quite difficult to sleep. It was very comfortable, but very noisy. The road noise is also quite loud since this home is located on a busy street. I'd recommend bringing a white noise sound machine.
