Truly gracious and helpful staff, super clean rooms. The stairs & exterior hallways were not in the best condition - particularly since that was our only access to our room on 3rd floor. Would have been pretty easy trip. Otherwise - great views, quiet, and peaceful. Thank you.

Nice room with water view. Comfy bed. It was too warm to use fireplace but it would be cozy on a chilly evening. Constant fog horn and bridge traffic were a concern when we first arrived but once we shut balcony door we didn't hear either and got a good night's sleep. Please note there is no elevator so staying on 3rd floor means you had to go down one flight and then walk up four flights of stairs which is alot when you've got luggage.

Nice view but it is located right next to the main road and bridge so traffic noise and the fog horn goes off all night. They do supply ear plugs. We were on the second floor and had very heavy footed upstairs neighbors. No AC so you will need to put the supplied box fan in the doorway to the balcony to draw in the cool air. You can sit on your balcony and watch some sea lions in the water.

Me and my husband just had our mini honeymoon here and it was to die for. The jetted tub overlooking the gorgeous sunset was so romantic and beautiful. Very clean and staff was so friendly. You can hear the fog horn go off about every 30-45 seconds, which some could find annoying, but we chose to let it fade into the scenery as just one of those quirky fort Bragg things. Coffee and a light breakfast were provided which was great, and conversation with the front desk staff was continuously enjoyable. Especially Alex! I would absolutely recommend this hotel and we will most definitely be back!

This is my fav mendo trip spot. Beautiful views, rooms were large, nice deck, comfortable bedding, the fireplace soaking tube is amazing, the room is stocked with everything you need even a fan and ear plugs if you dont enjoy the foghorn but we did. Its definitely an older place but they stay on top of repairs. Easy parking, great lobby. We didnt partake in the grab and go breakfast but the area looked nice. Honestly loved it.

This MOTEL is okay… it’s a beautiful location and spacious rooms. But there is a horn that blows every 30 seconds and makes it unpleasant to use the balcony or even leave the sliding glass door open. Some of the furnishings are worn and need to be replaced. Staff are helpful and a breakfast of muffins and coffee is available.
