Super cute, modern, vintage vibe. Peaceful and easygoing atmosphere. Room was clean and comfortable. Bar on site had friendly guests and bar staff when I was there. Easy to find parking which was free. I really enjoyed my workcation time here and even extended my stay another 2 nights! Grocery store, fast food, restaurants and the Hitching Post all down the street. You can't beat the great value for this place.

Property is great and in a perfect location for exploring the area. This our go to spot in the Buellton/Solvang area. A little bummed they took away the free continental breakfast away. It was basic but a very nice touch that really made you feel valued. One star off for that.
