“While some may find the need for upgrades apparent, the inn holds a certain charm with glimpses of its past appeal. The friendly cleaning staff and accommodating service add a positive note to the experience. Although renovations are needed, the basics are covered, like a good shower, and the location in Mendocino provides access to the coast.”
