This is a diamond in the rough. We were only looking for a stop point for rest on our travel along the wine stops from No Cal to our home in Carlsbad. While some of the property is getting remodeled, in the section operating we enjoyed a vintage trip to the early 1900s but with clean and new fuxturing and features.. CmGreat price Great stay.
