First time here. There are only 6 rooms I think. But the vibe is very nice. The room was chic. Nice bathroom with separate tub and shower. The star of the show was the tavern. Good and original food. I enjoyed the short stay!

Check in is seamless, no reception area, just a tablet, no key, just a code for the door, no check out, just text them when you are done, it couldn't get easier and smarter. Rooms have Roku, USB chargers, tooth brushes and paste, so you can travel light. 3 min drive from downtown and close to attractions

We had a wonderful stay! I absolutely love the cozy rooms—their quaint design are such a breath of fresh air from the usual hotels I stay at, and their amenities are generous. We really appreciated the slippers! Parking was great, and love that it is a short drive to Solvang. Might recommend implementing quiet hours—our neighbors had the TV on loud all night, but that was an inconsideration on the guest’s behalf and not the hotel. Am also grateful to Sally for her attentiveness. Can’t wait to stay again!
