Place was quiet and clean, it also had a cool trail to the bay. Much better than some chain hotels that are poorly kept and stink like curry.

It was a very cute room in a refurbished retro motor inn. We really enjoyed our stay, The only issues were that I never received the welcome email I was promised, and the hairdryer was not well secured to the bathroom wall, making it unusable. All things considered it was a nice stay in a cool motel.

We booked the Snowbird cottage and it was super cute! This is a rustic area and the location was perfect. Overall, it rated 4.5 stars. There were a few items left behind by the prior occupants, but otherwise clean. The shower definitely have hot water and the AC was cold. Parking is included and we were able to park in front of the cottage. The hosts were excellent on friendliness and communication.

This property is retro and fun. 1950-60's style is well done. No frills, but adequate amenities. Was there for the Worm Gruntin' Festival and found a plastic worm placed on the car windshield. Cool touch!

Parking was easy, right outside the room. The room was tiny but wonderful and really nice for what it was. AC kept the room comfortable and is extremely quiet. Great communication from the staff about the only issue with the tv but beyond their control. Definitely will book again when we go back to Panacea.
