Heading back for my third time. We love it and all of its charm. The owners are so sweet and thoughtful and it’s dog friendly. I love the location too, just at the entrance of the mission peninsula. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2d404a7b-0e79-404f-8f95-9e12d90282dc-1757609672453.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/10a154f0-49e3-4539-b8d5-4d01970a4fe2-1757609718588.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Brian Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah May 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Adorable lodgings and super friendly service. ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gricell Jul 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great condition, clean, great decor and great host.

So this was refreshing. Great personal touches, individual attention and family owned and operated. Definitely recommend staying here. ##### Wendy Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terry Jun 20, 2025 Liked: Amenities The owners/staff are personable and professional.
