"Clean, comfortable hotel, with friendly, helpful staff. The only slightly off notes are the 20 dollar resort fee - this is hardly a resort, and besides these types of fees that have to go or simply be reflected in the price of the room. And the Happy Hour had bottom of the barrel wine, but that's par for the course, even though this is is wine country and I did hold a glimmer of hope for better. Otherwise, free breakfast is quite good, location is fairly central if you don't mind walking a...

"It's an old hotel but that's part of it's charm. I liked that there was a restaurant, bar and pub on site. it was nice to have options. The pool/hot tub were nice though it looked like they hadn't been cleaned. Lots of leaves in the water. I did think the room had an older musty smell and the bathroom was small and oddly designed. As someone who wears contact I was disgusted that the mirror was over the toilet, poorly planned. "
