Very comfortable, quiet. I prefer the original part of hotel over the newer tower which I’m sure has a great view. For my age the ground floor is easier. Check out @ noon is a great feature. Restaurant on site, delicious, nice ambiance. Historic place. I’ll be back

Wish I never went
Towels stained, walls and doors of room dirty and in places damaged, spot painted and mismatched. Carpet stains. Furniture looked like it belongs in a dollar good will store, scratched very old. Smelly hallways. Overall an incredibly bad experience for $200+. I’ll never go there again. Motel 6 is better

Decent value
It's dated and run down. It was definitely the cheapest stop (and not the worst) on our 23 night road trip through California.

Good value
Very large room with comfortable beds. The decor is tired and needs refreshing but overall clean. This is a once grand hotel that no longer shines but is a good value. We looked forward to the Wine Cellar bar but is closed Monday through Wednesday. Great breakfast is no longer served either.

Definitely an older property with lots of charm. Nice to see a place with personality rather than cookie cutter style. Carpet in halls and rooms. Old style room with 2 nice beds, 2 chairs and a table and dresser. There was also a ceiling fan! No desk to work on. Typical bathroom with an extra counter and sink just outside bathroom door. Minimal parking out front but parking structure out back. Wish I had tried the Pub! Next time…
