Categories

Cleanliness
8.6
Generally described as very clean and spotless in multiple reviews (bathrooms and common areas), but several mentions of a smoke smell in a room, worn carpet and a damaged couch lower this score slightly.
Service
9.8
Consistently praised: friendly and accommodating front desk, prompt moves for noisy rooms, attentive lounge staff and ample staff presence noted — strong service across reviews.
Location
9.4
Located next to Hwy 5/truck stop but repeatedly described as a surprising oasis/hidden gem with beautiful grounds — convenient for travelers and highly regarded despite proximity to the highway.
Room Quality
8.8
Rooms are described as large and clean, with reserved parking and comfort, but isolated reports of smoke odor, worn carpet and a damaged couch reduce this score.
Amenities
9.8
Outstanding amenities reported: pool, koi ponds, hydroponic terrarium, wine museum, bocce/horse shoes, orchards, shaded seating and pet-friendly features — repeatedly highlighted as a key strength.
Value for Money
9
Many guests call the breakfast and overall stay great value and note attractive pricing; a few comments flag expensive dinner pricing, so value is strong but not without caveats.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Restaurant praised for farm-to-table quality and excellent breakfast; some guests note higher prices for dinner and occasional service delays in the restaurant (not the lounge).
Overall Experience
9
Overall highly positive — guests describe the property as a hidden gem and an oasis, many repeat visits and strong recommendations, tempered slightly by isolated issues (smoke smell, some pricey menu items).

Oasis from the slog of I-5
Pros:

Flo at the front desk was extremely friendly and welcoming. Cookies given for the room and a balcony to enjoy them on. The room was large and beautifully appointed with great pillows and mattress. The bathroom was tiled in a Spanish motif with expensive toiletries.
The grounds are beautiful and the restaurant very high end. My waiter, Javier was extremely welcoming and and excellent server. I felt very well taken care of by all the staff.

Cons:

Everything great.
