Nice to stay on the Noyo and watch boats. There was a barking dog in the room next to us. I texted management about where to park since there is a restaurant here as well. No replies.

Self check in is a bust. If you arrive and there is an issue with your 4th email that has your confirmation number to the door, there is no front desk as advertised. Tv also comes off and on like clock work every 15 minutes. Had to find a maintenance man who literally just moves the bad cable box from one room to the other.

This tiny room was pretty clean and comfortable for just sleeping while exploring during the day. Menopause ladies please note! No AC, only a fan. If the weather had been a few degrees hotter I would have been miserable, as it was in the 60’s at night, it cooled down nicely. We felt very safe there and it was pretty quiet. For the price I was satisfied. The fridge freezer box even froze my ice pack for the drive home so that was nice. Check in was no hassle, all online and having a dog was easy with walking grassy areas conveniently near by.

Right on the water, was able to watch the otters and seals swimming right from the balcony and listen to the peaceful fog horn at night.

Clean. I wanted a low-cost motel, but I was a little afraid of how grungy some of them can be. It ended up being quite clean. Good for the price we paid.

This place is hidden gem. The rooms are clean, online check in is easy and fast, they have codes for the rooms, so no need to go in and register. Staying in a working Harbor is exciting. Watching boats go in and out, the fog horn in the background, everything you need right there within walking distance! My first stay was 10 years ago, I try my best to stay here everytime I visit Fort Bragg CA.
