Rooms have all been redone, the beds are very comfortable, new LG flat screens, clean, not the best wine country location but if you are willing to drive a bit you can bank your dough for wine :) -
DO NOT ORDER FROM ROOM SERVICE! THE RUDEST SERVICE I HAVE EVER BEEN A VICTIM OF. There is a local Dennys, call it in. #hugetip -
the last time i was here, the swan escaped from the pond, got inside the hotel, and pooped on the floor. my actual tip: LET THE SWAN IN. -
Great wifi here. No annoying interstitial page between you and the interwebz -
Not green at all :-( The pool is nice. Staff not that much friendly. The restaurant was the worst I have been in a 12 days trip in California :-( Don't eat here...Don't stay here... -
Virtually no Internet. More cheap than green. Food so so. Nice bed. Old old TV, fridge Mwave. So not green -
good room, great bed, fast internet. very lucky to stay here -
Had my anniversary here -
If you are a United Mileage Plus member they have a truly great rate. first LEED Gold certified hotel. A great base for a wine country exploration (esp as it leaves you more green for food & wine) -
