A great option for a stay in Mendocina. Just outside of town, we had a room with a small water view. Simple but clean lodging…kind of minimalist but nice outdoor space for relaxing.

Everything was wonderful. The room was spacious very clean. The beds were very comfortable and the pillars too. The view was amazing. The amenities were in abundance. We had a lot of fun.
What a wonderful property!!! We booked an Elite Room, Dog Allowed, and couldn’t have been happier. The room was large and nicely furnished with plenty of room for our dog and us. We didn’t have an ocean view room but merely walking outside we had a great ocean view and there are plenty of places to sit and enjoy it. I can’t wait to visit again!

Cool funky renovated motel. Liked the large space, proximity to Mendocino. Would have preferred a non-pet friendly room. I think this is an especially good property for those traveling with a dog.

Really enjoyed our one night stay here. The perfect stay for you and a partner looking for a cute ocean side retreat. Really accessible to the city of Mendocino and only a short drive from Fort Bragg.

Place was cool, spacious, and modern. Had everything you’d need for a pleasant stay. Booked the Elite room specifically for the soaking tub. Room also had a standup shower. Had a microwave, mini fridge, and Nespresso coffee machine.
Nestled location but only a mile and a half from historic Mendocino. My only issue would be the mattress comfort. Could be a more plush and comfortable.
Would definitely stay here again when the weather is nicer.
