Nice for a quick stop.

Quick one night stay while visiting Redwood National area. Room was dark enough for this night shift worker and the breakfast was stocked of the usual choices. Quiet enough area with conveniences close by.

Not worth the price!

Stayed 2 nights to drop my child at college. Feel the nightly rate was price gouged! Too expensive for an old hotel. Room was clean but door lock was broken and they did not have another room. Maintenance did come and fix it the next day. Surprisingly the breakfast included was quite good and had many selections. They never emailed me my receipt as asked upon checking out.
