Great stay but mattress was lumpy and very uncomfortable. Otherwise clean, charming and ok for one night.
An absolutely wonderful hotel, fantastic, peaceful location, super friendly, helpful staff.
On site restaurant is excellent, I can highly recommend staying here, we'll definitely stay again.
We loved staying here and took advantage of the restaurant and bar downstairs for evenings and the cheese store across street for our morning cappuccinos.
Fabulous restaurant and very kind staff. Quaint little town and so close to Dillon Beach and Bodega Bay! A shout out to Rae and Theo for their extra care.
The room was spotless, beautifully appointed. But there was no tv, the only coffee maker was in the hall and had to be shared, and the hotel is on a busy road.
No ac but the open window and fan made it very comfortable quickly. 1864 building that we found delightful but won’t be for everyone! Stairs only to the rooms, comfy bed, no tv.
The hotel was so cozy and so cute. The stay was lovely. I will definitely be back. The whole hotel is adorable and so comfortable very close to Bodega Bay and Petaluma.
The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. My only problem was the restaurant that was underneath did not turn off music until after 9. It was supposed to close at 8:30.
Hotel was a challenge to find, since there was no internet or GPS service on Route 1. But, room was GREAT! Very clean! Quaint “Mom&Pop” Hotel! Would definitely stay here again.
This off the beaten path hotel is a must stay. The connected restaurant served up one of the best burgers I’ve ever had ! Historical building with charm. The staff was the best. FYI: everything closes early so get what you need before you get there 👍
