I enjoyed my stay very much, room very nice, modern decor, clean. Only downside is that I stayed for 2 nights and they don’t clean your room only after 3 night stay. Service is prompt and friendly.

the facility reminds me of a typical below average house flipper.The continental breakfast is a donut, fruit, and juice. For the price per night i would expect a little more. The quiet times were not inforced.

This place was fantastic. It is much more modern than the movie but still hits you with that nostalgia. The check-in was great and the front desk was super friendly and really made a great first impression. My room had a great view and very comfy, with a nice set up with a table and chairs to sip some wine and eat Santa Ynez Sausage. The gym was top notch. I would say the only thing is light outside the rooms is bright has I like a very dark room.

The air conditioner did not work in our room & did not workin our friends room!! Keeping us awake. Called earlier for someone to fix it. They came but it’s an obsolete system. Would not recommend staying there😕

We used to live in Solvang. We understand from friends that the downtown Solvang area is busy this time of year. We decided to stay in Buellton which was a good choice. The property has been nicely renovated. Our children enjoyed the pool and it was nicely maintained.

Very pleasant and helpful staff. Restaurant food (casual fare) very tasty and affordable. Loved this place!

The ambience is good and maintained nicely. Room is clean. Staff are courteous. Things need to improve: The bed shake easily when I turn my body and will easily wake up my spouse. The driveway entrance can easily missed.

The room was beautiful. The bed and bedding was so comfortable. The bathroom up to date and the whole experience was perfect.

Very nice property well maintained, difficult driving in and out due to location, very heavy traffic on main road.
