"Beautiful location and property. Certain dishes in Drake’s Restaurant - corn chowder soup, burrata and snap pea salad, pork chop and miso cod- are outstanding for dinner. Cozy room with fireplace and wonderful views from 2nd floor balcony. Access to bikes and Dorian Park along with our hike to Estero Americano Park rounded out are 2 night stay with use of the infinity hot tub and pool. S’mores in the evening by the lobby fire was a nice touch. Staff helpful and kind. Overall very relaxing stay!"

"Beautiful setting next to the golf course. Close to the Graton Casino. Close to everything. Hotel staff were wonderful and went the extra mile to get our rooms ready early. Really nice registration staff at all times. Parking was convenient to our rooms but we were charged $22/day per room which was not disclosed until after we booked the rooms. Lobby area with many sitting areas were very comfortable and inviting. The bar was only open until 10:00pm and there was only 1 bartender so it was a long difficult process to get drinks! Rooms were clean and comfortable, but need to be upgraded as they look like the 1980’s decor and furnishings. Bathtub was worn out in places from previous damage, couch really needed to be replaced."

"The property shows well and the room was clean, the staff was super nice, the kind of nice that is natural not some trained greetings. In fact, I had left my purse in the breakfast area and realized it later, they had it at the desk for me. And all the staff say hello as you pass by. I gave the grounds a lower score because it looks like they are repairing landscaping as everything is dug out dirt, that's all."
