A comfortable, clean room in a quiet area in close proximity to nearby attractions. If that’s what you’re looking for, I highly recommend this property.
Was decent little place. No lobby or staff on site. No dining choices close by

Was really a cute place! The floor in my room could have been swept better and there was dog hair all over the couch. But it was really nice other than this small thing. Like the easy check in and contactless.

Nice stay
Nice little place- no frills but very clean and comfortable. Bed is a little soft for my taste but other than that it's a nice place to stay for an overnight.

Very clean! They say in the listing that they offer a crib upon request but they did not have one so just prepare for that if needed. Other than that checkin was very easy the room was clean and quiet.

This property was off the beaten path. Showed some Bay pics but upon arrival. Had to drive to get to any views.
However, the customer service was top notch and the place was clean and perfect if you’re surrounded by chaos on a regular basis. Perfect way to reset.
Runs like a Bed and Breakfast never saw staff. However, staff was readily available and on point. Wasn’t what I wanted when I came here BUT was what I needed.

This was a clean room with easy self check in. When we were the only ones in the building, we got upgraded free of charge which was kind of them. It was a perfect stay for two adults taking a weekend away from the kids. There was a bit of noise pollution, which is the only reason for the four stars on the "area around the property"
