Talmage Vacation Packages

What a quaint and cute cottage. Loved the room and freshly ground coffee! It's a ROKU TV, so have your passwords ready, but all was great! Would have been nice to have a couple of breakfast items. Otherwise, enjoy! Beautiful view!

The Inns was pricey. Location was decent -close enough to the water although without any view. We got a suite and it seemed spacious enough but so little space to do anything at all. For instance, no coffee table to spread out breakfast (which was nice if you don’t mind a pure carb and sugar meal in the morning). And we had our suitcases on the floor because there was nothing to put them on - between the space and the price it felt stupid. No AC it but we didn’t need it. But no microwave? Mendocino kind of sucks in terms of food choice. Pricey American “fine dining”. One grocery store about a km away offers a few choices. But we couldn’t buy soup or any frozen dinners. Weird choices seem to create weird outcomes (or are we all expected to cozy up to some fine dining place?). You get some complimentary wine and cheese from 4-5 ?! Guess people want to go home (I did not mind missing that). We did Mendocino differently last time. Stayed in Fort Bragg and drove down for a walk along the very nice coastline. Lots more dining options there and just more practical stays. Will go back to that. Last thing - The Inns shows some pics on their Expedia page but the actual acco you get is likely to be something else. They have a bunch of buildings all over the place. Location and aesthetic vary a lot and you don’t get to make the choice - it is made for you. I think they need to be more transparent about this… Hmmm… I really did not like this place at all.

Excellent location - can walk everywhere.

I paid for a bed and breakfast at nearly $500/night and they stopped food last May. No notification was made to this. In stead one enters a lonely sparsely furnished livingroom with card tables with chess and checkers on them. A Keurig coffee machine which you have to fill the water and chocolate chip cookies that were baked the night before. There is virtually nobody around with a feeling of just emptiness. There was no ambience at all. It has such potential but it’s been dropped for more profit by providing less. Short sighted as it has resulted in this negative review which many will read. Magnificent view from front yard but it can’t carry the rest of the house emptiness and coldness.
