A great retro place to stay

So retro and so fun. Nicely updated but kept the feel of a classic motor lodge.

We asked but did not receive.

The room was really cute. It had a weird smell, we assumed it was us after having spent the entire day at the river. The smell did not dissipate. The following morning, I asked for house keeping as it is only offered every three days during the stay. When we returned from the day out, housekeeping did not come. The smell was worse. We tried opening the windows and in doing so, the blinds broke. We called the front desk and after two hours, and me having to physically go to the front desk, we got a sheet that was put over the window. The following morning, I went back to the front desk, requesting house keeping and maintenance for the broken blinds. We were gone all day, returned to a room that was tidied up, but the blinds still broken, sheet covering the window and that weird smell. It wasn’t uncomfortable, but mostly because we were only in the room to sleep. We visit Sonoma county often, but will not be booking here again.

It's a decent upgraded motel. Good value. Some outside noise from parking lot and walkways. Very comfortable bed (some might think it's too soft). Water pressure in shower was fantastic - which is rare for any hotel. Nice large TV. Full breakfast is included which adds to the value.

We first drive up to the motel and there is a suv with broken in windows alll over it right next to the lobby. There is strong weed smell. Besides the amazing sweet bartender, the rest of the staff always seemed bothered and unwilling to help or talk when asked about certain amenities.

Not what I was expecting after reading other reviews. Breakfast was only available at their pool bar area which was open air - a bit frigid with little to no seating.
