The hotel was very nice, the only thing is that during my stay, there is no housekeeping that clean our cottages. I'm out most of the time and I'm expecting that my room will be clean but when I got back, the room was not clean. I went back to my room around 11:10pm so I didn't like to call to request for housekeeping since I want to sleep already. In the morning, I have to leave at 6am so I reused the towel that I already put on the floor and came back to the room by lunch. Still nobody attempted to clean or asked us if we want our room to be clean. I don't know the protocol now about housekeeping but I just stayed with other hotels recently and as far as I know, housekeeping is daily unless you put a sign at your door "do not disturb" Although they gave me room upgrade during check in, I'd rather have a regular room, cleaned up daily than to have upgrade but no housekeeping service

I don't like it when people pick at the little things and then give a one star review when it's not really warranted. That said, I think us reviewers can also be too generous. For example, was that quaint B&B really a 5 star hotel? Usually not. It may be nice but not equal to the extravagance or services of other hotels. I rated the Napa Inn a 3. It was what one would expect in a B&B, but to say it was more or less than that would not be helpful to others wanting and honest review. Our room was clean but small. It showed a little wear and tear but had everything one needs. The breakfast was good if you like eggs. The grounds were probably the highlight, as there were numerous places to sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. I know some of the amenities were discontinued due to Covid and that detracted from the stay so perhaps it would be a 3.5-4 star hotel if all were back to normal.
