We were pleasantly surprised with this property! Travelling for 4 weeks and booking all our lodging by looking at pictures and reviews can be nerve racking, but this place was a gem! Having to pick a different hotel the night before due to being in a terrible area, arriving here was a breath of fresh air! Perfect location to the beautiful walking trails behind the lodge meandering through beautiful wild flowers with the ocean crashing in the rocky coast in the background. A short walk to a nice beach and really cool bridge that was an old railroad bridge. Cute town with all the amenities needed. Will definitely keep this place on the list for a future trip!! The lady that checked us in was super sweet (name escapes me, I think Bridget??) and helpful with all the local attractions. Glass Beach is just down the road and is a must see!

Would not recommed

Starting with the positive, when we checked in and out the reception staff were really friendly. The accomodation however was really poor. Very dated and shabby and not clean. We opened the sheets on the bed and found 5 or 6 long black hairs....hoping they were clean sheets but perhaps the cleaner just didn't have their hair up? The bed was springy and bouncy and felt really old. The soundproofing was non-existent and we could hear every movement from the floor above, including the shower and taps. The area is very dog friendly, but the rooms here aren't really cleaned sufficiently and my husband has a slight allergy and was constantly sneezing. It was so bad my husband immediately wanted to leave...but I persuaded him as we had traveled far we could make it through one night and then leave, losing the second night payment for the room. It also wasn't a particularly cheap room, from memory about £180 per night. The town itself is quite quaint, with a few breweries and nice beaches. We drove through Mendocino which looks a bit more lively with better hotels, so would probably advise staying there if you're in the area. The second night we actually drove to Petaluma (about 2.5 hours) and booked a Hampton Inn which was about half the price and seemed like pure luxury in comparison!
