This adorable hotel is nestled in the heart of Eureka. The staff is so welcoming and friendly. The place is beautiful and cozy. From the entrance of the main hotel, to the little bar, all the way to the rooms and how cozy yet spacious they were. Everything about the hotel was perfect. Also, the water pressure on the shower head: perfection!
