The hotel was perfectly situated, close to ocean views & bluff walks, groceries, and food options. The room was big enough and clean-ish. I would stay here again with my family, but the place is quite dated with some of what you’d expect with old bathrooms. Beds were comfortable and clean. When we stayed, they said they were in the process of updating the TVs to allow streaming.

Everything about the hotel was great, except for one thing. There was no desk in the room. For people like me who travel by day and do serious computer work in the evening, a place to work with computer and mouse is extremely important.

The room was clean and the management very friendly. The late check in worked perfectly. There is a nice sunset walk cross the road along the cliffs. The hotel and rooms are dated and the matress was too soft for my taste.

My room was bright, airy, and welcoming; super clean, cozy, and comfortable. Lovely view of both river and ocean. The "fireplace" was an unexpected bonus. Parking area is laid out well, somewhat hidden from the street by shrubs in the property, and the spaces are large. Becky (on-site manager) was very friendly, helpful, and informative. Totally professional, but with a warm personality. She was very accommodating when I discovered I'd inadvertently double-booked for the night! But I ended up wanting a second night, so she worked it all out. This is a great place and I would driveline stay here again!

Wanted a quiet getaway for my partners birthday. We had never been to Gualala and this property was perfectly located to walk anywhere we needed to go. The rooms have a fridge, microwave, cute little fireplace and bistro table and chairs. The view was fantastic. The property was quiet and clean. Perfect for our getaway.

Cozy, spacious room with fireplace and beautiful view of the river and blue water. Tub/shower is a nice option; adds a homey touch. Fridge, microwave, and Keurig are very clean and in good working order. Clear concise instructions for the fireplace&TV. Local dining/shopping guide very handy. Becky (on-site manager) was extremely helpful, accommodating, and friendly. She turned my glaring oversight (double-booking) into a blessing. I would stay here again!

I highly recommend this dog-friendly Inn.

I love this place and will definitely stay there again.The rooms are very nice, very comfortable and a great value. The host/concierge was so helpful and friendly, I really felt at home there. They were fully booked, yet the rooms were quiet and the other guests I met were also nice dog owners. On one walk, I met some nice people who said they usually stay at the Gualala Country Inn, but they were already full; they also plan to stay there again. The Inn is situated on the edge of town so everything is convenient but quiet. I highly recommend this dog-friendly Inn.
