    The staff provided exceptional service, offering valuable local information and assistance with practical needs, such as currency exchange for laundry facilities. Furthermore, the breakfast offerings consistently met expectations. I personally highly recommend this establishment for its excellent value and overall positive experience.

    Well, I did not realize this was a dog friendly hotel. I do like dogs, but there was a bit of barking from the room next door. Additionally, there was a very funky smell on the second floor by the elevator - as though a dog had an accident. It had definitely been cleaned up, but I'm super sensitive to those "fragrant sprays"...perhaps 'no carpet' would be in order in a dog friendly hotel...

    I liked the friendliness of the staff, both at the front desk and at the breakfast the next morning. The beds were comfortable, and the room was very clean. The location was good too. It was within walking distance to the cute "downtown" area - although it was way too hot to walk so I drove.

    Quirky hotel with unexpected touches

    Cooking smells travel up from the atrium to the rooms, kind of a design flaw as all the rooms are situated overlooking the atrium.

    Turkish coffee in the morning made it feel like a real vacation getaway! Comfy bed and pillow. Really appreciated having access to cold drinking water in the lobby and atrium.

    Nothing springs to mind

    Rooms were large and clean with all facilities available. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty available from 6am to 10am. Location was excellent for Napa Valley and a much more reasonable value.

    Best Stay Ever

    The whole place was clean and very comfortable with large open areas. There were areas on each floor to gather with friends and family to sit and talk about your plans or to just sit and relax the rooms were large and came with all the amenities. The pool and spa area was large with plenty of seating and was stocked with ex-large clean pool towels for drying off or just laying in the sun. The place was Very Pet Friendly and the included breakfast was the best I've ever had with a large selection of breakfast foods from waffles to muffins to cereals all with ample choices to choose from even the juice came in 4 varieties and the coffee was not just regular and decaf to pick from but also French roast and a very tasty house blend that you could flavor with assorted creamers and sweeteners. All in all it was the best night I've spent on a hotel in many years I HIGHLY RECOMMEND SYAYING HERE AND THE ONLY REASON I DIDN'T GIVE THEM A SCORE OF 10 IS BECAUSE I HAD TO BE ABLE TO GIVE THEM A HIGHER SCORE NEXT TIME I STAY

    Don't let the entry way near the front desk fool you. It doesn't look very inviting, with drab furniture and poor lighting. The room was 100% worth it.

    Surprisingly awesome, with a very comfortable bed and clean room.
