Hotel had ‘closed for construction’ signs on outside doors. Room in awful shape (I took photos) but since it was late we stayed only the one night rather than 3 nights.

the place definitely has character and is unique - you really feel like you are in a historic building - the rooms are clean, location is perfect - they didnt modernize it all up so it feels very real which i think is cool and price is reasonable

It appears the owners don’t want to spend a dime on upkeep or for adequate maintenance or cleaning staff. What was once an interesting and unique property is now essentially a historic dump

Old hotel in smalll town Mendocino, was suitable for the night. Please note this hotel has many rooms with no bathroom, you go down the hall to shared bathrooms. This was fine for me for one night but may not suit all travelers.

I really like the European style rooms. It was nice to have the bay view room too while the Mendocino music fest was happening. I probably wouldn’t have enjoyed my stay as much if I wasn’t facing the water, so thanks for that. Would come back.

The view was outstanding. There are walking paths near the water. Our desk assistant recommended a great place to eat. The hotel is from 1878 and has all that charm. The lobby and bar (which is closed) has beautiful woodwork. The property is under new owners and they are planning a renovation. I hope they maintain the look and feel of an old inn.

The location was amazing. But our room smelled like mold. We woke up in the middle of the night coughing, even our dog was having breathing issues. Also, when we arrived in the early morning the lady who checked us in was very incompetence.

There was no upfront explanation of the pet fee even though booked the room with the traveling with pet filter set. The fee was another $50. The room was not maintained very well for a $250 per night room.

I don’t mind paying $500 a night for vintage but not for dilapidated. The hotel is in bad shape. I hear it’s being renovated starting October but it should be closed until then. Paid for an ocean view and shared deck. Maybe if the windows were washed and the bird crap cleanup on the deck it would have helped. The roof shingles are falling off and will eventually hit someone in the head. It was warm and we could not get the windows to stay up. There was something sharp on the mattress frame and my husband cut his foot on it. This place is in bad shape. Wait until it’s renovated before you stay here.

A touch of elegant history

We had an amazing historical suite. The bathroom was huge. The main bed was huge but the tall height of the mattress made it almost impossible to get in and out of bed. The room was really only set up well for two people. We had three with only one light blanket for each of the two bedding areas. Mendocino is chilly so sleeping was a cold experience. There were also only two towels. They probably would have given us more towels and blankets but we were too tired to realize it would become a problem. The hotel itself is amazing for history buffs. It is beautiful and makes you want to learn more about history of the region. Then there is also the big swing on the second floor deck overlooking the bluffs and ocean. We really loved it in spite of the sparse linens. My granddaughter basked in the huge tub.
