The hotel itself was so beautiful, tucked into a magical location away from the hustle and bustle yet plenty of restaurants and wineries right by. The garden was magical. When you checked in everyone was so nice.

Location is excellent, walking distance to good restaurants and a nice park to walk through. Driving distance to great hikes and even more great restaurants. Beautiful nooks and crannies to play games or sit and relax. Fire pits to sit by. Wild flowers everywhere. Room were lacking decor so not super pretty but certainly clean and comfortable. Service and breakfast was wonderful.

I like this place a lot and wouldn't hesitate to go here again. It is a great value at this price. My one gripe is the bathroom. It is small and the shower was finicky, cramped, and too low for me. My 5'4" wife even complained about it. Otherwise, this place is pretty terrific.
