You can do better.

A few problems. The photos on your website are a bit deceptive of the actual property. It’s not as nice as it looks. It’s undergoing construction now. Our room, though clean and quiet was rather small with no closet space. The bed was great but the microwave didn’t work. WiFi was spotty. The electric outlet strip on one side of the bed did not work. There are much nicer hotels in Solvang in the same price range. I would not stay there again.

We’re planning a return visit. The interior courtyard was wonderfully peaceful day and night. Easy access to food and beverage for the discriminating palette.

Amazing boutique property. Nice staff members who helped with a quick check in and check out. The rooms were newly renovated with modern amenities. AC and Microwave in the room worked very well. Lot of dining options nearby at a walkable distance. Ample parking in front of the rooms. We had a very comfortable stay.
