This was a clean and comfortable room.. #37. Perfect location in st. Helena. Nice linens and a huge shower. Courteous treatment at the desk, spa was wonderful, Keurig coffee maker was handy. However, I would bring my own pods next time. The continental breakfast was simple, but healthy choices were available. I would absolutely stay again for the price

The room is very nicely furnished and the grounds are well maintained. I would stay there again. One complaint is that upon arrival at 3.30pm I asked the front desk man for extra blanket and pillow because of recent health issue. He said he was too busy to bring it until after 5pm but he never showed up so I was a bit cold and uncomfortable all night. Oh well.

We popped into town for the day and decided to spend the night. We’ve stayed here before and they never let us down. It’s reasonably priced, clean, and easy. This isn’t a high end frills place but always provides a great place for a nights sleep.
