Nice, clean, quiet, well-maintained property in an excellent, safe location. Several nearby restaurants are in walking distance. This is my 2nd time staying at this Inn, and I will definitely return when I'm back in the area. This is a dog-friendly facility that charges $30/night per dog, which is on par compared to other places that permit dogs.

The property is in a nice location convenient to several dining options and walking trails. My one disappointment was that the Garden room we were in was not by a garden. The room looked out on a parking lot in the front and the wall of a building in the back. I’m not sure why they had chairs outside the room as sitting there would only have you staring at the front of your car. The adjacent lawn and garden area were lovely though.

a nice enough stay

check in was friendly, and there was a wine reception when we arrived, though it was really only a couple of open bottles of wine and some snacks in a room without a bay view. our room was clean, comfortable but nothing special. we got $7 vouchers at the semi-attached breakfast spot, good breakfast burritos and bear claws, though the staff was really only friendly one of the three days we were there; not rude, but the first morning person was definitely different than the next two. our kitchenette was okay; the fridge was pretty small and constantly had melted freezer water at the bottom; the freezer didn't fully freeze our ice packs; and there were only three forks and a couple of dishes. i think we wanted to like it more after the initial greeting and the grounds, but in the end it was only just "mostly okay". i wouldn't recommend against staying here, and we have a friend who lives nearby that we visit, and so we may start again. just want people reading this to know what you are getting for the price. it was worth what we paid, but not a "hidden gem" or anything.

I had to give a low rating due to several issues. While the property is beautiful with a great bay view, gardens, and dining options, my stay was disappointing. After returning late, I found my room without power, while the rest of the hotel had electricity. The issue wasn't resolved until 1:30 am, when we were given a space heater, extension cord, camping light, and extra blankets for freezing temperatures. We had to stay in our van for hours as no nearby hotels had vacancies. The room was also unclean, with stained sheets, lumpy pillows, and a refrigerator in the bathroom next to the toilet. Despite booking a more expensive room with a view, I was moved to a cheaper, “pet-friendly” room without a price adjustment, though the pet fee was waived. Additionally, expired coupons were given inlieu of the “breakfast included” and could not be honored by the coffee shop as they expired a few days before we even checked in. Staff were kind, but this hotel lacks proper protocols.
