Pick this place!

We could not have enjoyed the view from our room more. View was stunning and a seagull came daily to perch on the rail to stare at us, lol. Quiet, convenient to Mendocino and surrounding parks. Staff was pleasant and accommodating.

Love the views and warmth of staff. Dinner wait time too long...staff did hustle but wait time was 20-30 mins after we sat down. A complimentary glass of wine could have made things more relaxed...hint, hint!
