Comfy rooms great price and fantastic location

El Bonita is an older property but is updated and very clean and comfortable. Hot tub and sauna were great. Continental breakfast was on par with similar level hotels and motels. Great location in the middle of Napa Valley. Great value, comfortable room, good amenities and good service. Free parking. I’d definitely stay there again and recommend to friends.

This was great for a small dog. Nice patch of grass directly outside of rooms, easily accessible. Very quiet. Good continental breakfast with fresh donuts, fruit, cereal, and coffee. Can't beat the location either.
