Very clean, nostalgic feel and friendly. Close to town but not in town. The gardens are great for an evening stroll, glass of wine or just to visit with friends. I would definitely stay there again. The free breakfast is minimal, but still free, no complaints here at all.

I loved the garden and BBQ area. They have a dog park for those traveling with their furry friends. Everything we needed was just a few minutes away.

The place is a little rustic, but has charm (we've stayed in may Ft Bragg hotels). The dog-friendly option is excellent and they don't stick you with a huge fee for pets.
Waking distance from David's Restaurant, which has an incredible breakfast.

Nice place. Very clean and quiet. Safe. Downside bathroom fan was crazy loud. Otherwise it was a good stay. Coffee in lobby was hot and fres! Good price for location.

This was a very cute hotel and we enjoyed our stay. The location was great convenient. The only disappointing factor was we were needing to use the laundry facilities and it was not in working order and this was not described on the amenities. Other than that great place to stay.

Everything else can be perfect, but if the shower is a luke warm low flow disaster, that’s 1 star hotel, and that’s what we have here. A hot shower is a must after a long day of adventure. End of review.

Place is a bit dated and our room 157 could use a new (or cleaned) chair as the current one is stained. But bed was clean and comfortable and shower was hot and clean. Bathroom works. That’s really all I need and offered here at a fair price for the area.
