Wine Valley Inn

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely property just a block off the main drag in Solvang. Very friendly and accommodating staff, pretty and spacious room with a table and chairs inside and out. The included breakfast was pretty good--the eggs were terrible but everything else was fine and great to have a few bites before wine tasting. We look forward to another stay very soon!"
