Cute place by Solvang, close to the area to drive like 5 mins. Facility was pretty big and rooms were decent and clean. Could hear a little bit of people upstairs but not so bad. I recommend for a cheaper option than the spots in Solvang!

It's a fun hideaway, I didn't like the location (behind gas station subject to heavy traffic) but it was comfortable place for a weekend. I didn't have a chance to visit the grill or bar...maybe next time. The front desk staff were helpful and friendly. Nice visit.

Property was close to Flying flags where family was staying. Easy access and short walk. Property had plenty of parking spaces for guest staying at hotel however it should be managed a bit better, during peak times you’ll find people staying in flying flags parking in hotel area.
