The property was nice for what you pay for. Staff was nice and helpful the only thing that I didn't like is that there is nothing around interms of what to do. When we stayed there was power outage and thus Solvang was closed and so was half of the town. I was a tad bit afraid cus the hotel room locks from the outside so when I would turn the knob the door would open so I was always unsure if the door was securely closed.

Decent spot for doing a quick wine tour! Nothing fancy but clean & neat. Owner/manager was very friendly and welcoming…. Walked us to the room to make sure everything was in working order. Better price than anywhere else in town!

The ease of check-in was nice after a long drive. The room was clean, simple, no frills and exactly what was needed for a shower and some sleep. Very quiet until the neighbor enters their room, then you realize the walls are kind of thin. Fortunately, the noise didn't last long. Bathroom was clean. Being your own toiletries as a small shower bar and a sample pack of conditioning shampoo is all that is provided. I would stay here again if I'm needing an affordable spot. Enjoyable nights stay for a last minute trip. Thank you!!

Staff was great! Older motel, clean. Great if you just need a simple place to sleep. Definitely not a luxury resort but very good for the price. I would definitely stay again.
