Clean room and decent bed. Charming and convenient. Furniture is dated, but so is the motel. Breakfast was minimal and would recommend going in town if you need a substantial breakfast. I would stay there again as it provided a clean room in great location.

Room clean. Stayed in room 20, fireplace lit up by itself, and near my room. Perfect since my family member uses a cane, and had a toddler. Definitely staying again. Will bring earplugs due to heating system was loud, so not central heating. Near they highway and did not hear it. Definitely recommend!!

The style and ambience of the hotel was in keeping with the wine country setting. The room was the only third floor suite which provided a beautiful view and setting. The suite itself was spacious and the kitchenette was fully functional with beautiful cabinetry. The bathroom was spacious and had a deep soaking tub. Very friendly staff, too!
