Valley Ford Hotel is located on Highway 1, convenient for a drive up or down the California coast. As it's right on the road, we could hear cars zipping by until dark and early in the morning. There's no front desk... the proprietors left an envelope for us outside the hotel's door with the door codes, so we could enter easily. I wasn't sure how that was initially going to work, but the area was safe, so it felt ok. If you mess up the code too many times to enter your room, the restaurant's staff can contact the proprietor to reset the code. The room was clean and quaint, with a really comfortable bed. The bathroom was also clean with fluffy towels. The one detractor in the bathroom was that the shower/tub floor was slippery, but at least there was a grab bar. There were a couple of nearby dining options, including a bar/restaurant downstairs from the hotel (we ate there for dinner) and a cafe across the street (we ate there for breakfast). Overall, we had a lovely stay!

The room was spotless, beautifully appointed. But there was no tv, the only coffee maker was in the hall and had to be shared, and the hotel is on a busy road.

This off the beaten path hotel is a must stay. The connected restaurant served up one of the best burgers I’ve ever had ! Historical building with charm. The staff was the best. FYI: everything closes early so get what you need before you get there 👍

Would stay there again
This is a 7 room hotel out in a remote location. There is no front desk and check in is grabbing an envelope off a bulletin board at the front door. The rooms are basic and the hotel was very calm and quiet. The hotel itself maintains a 65 degree ambient air and if you want it warmer you use a provided space heater in the room. Everything was going well until midnight when we lost power to all of the wall sockets in the room or no heat anymore. Given the late hour we decided to use the provided comforter rather than calling someone out to reset a breaker most likely. The restaurant is excellent and has an interesting menu of southern inspired food. The bar has 3 or 4 on tap beers and a couple of cider choices
