Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this inn! The rooms, though a bit small, were cute, clean, and had the bonus of a kitchen and gas fireplace. For a cheaper inn, it was an amazing find. The service was top-notch, especially with the housekeeper Maria Luisa who was friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for exploring Mendocino and Fort Bragg. The dining experience with delicious tapas on the patios was delightful.
I was pleasantly surprised by the room at this hotel. It had a nice little kitchen with a good size refrigerator and even a little freezer. The flat-screen TV and DVD player were a nice touch, and you can borrow DVDs from the office. The kitchen was well stocked, but we were under the impression we would have a full kitchen in the room.
When I walked into the room, it smelled like paint, which wasn't that pleasant. However, despite the initial odor, the room was suitable for our needs, with a small table, a comfortable queen bed, and a surprisingly well-stocked kitchen. The gas stove and basic appliances made meal preparation convenient. The hotel service was top-notch, especially from the helpful and informative housekeeper, Maria Luisa. The location, while busy, was relaxing to walk around, though there were some plumbing issues that needed addressing. Dining on the patios was lovely, and the hotel offered hot dishes. Overall, the facilities were maintained well.
