We travel with two small toy, Aussies, and chose this place specifically for its location in Mendocino, location near the event that we were wanting to attend, and it’s acceptance of our two dogs. The accommodation for the pets was exceptional. They had many areas to walk our dogs, with cleanup bags, and disposal sites stocked and easily accessible. They had pet welcome goodies in the rooms. They also had a small bottle of local wine gifted & awaiting us, with two real wine glasses & opener. We were able to catch the sunset with ocean view from our room with a toast!

The location and the affordable price. I liked digital check- in and the coded entry system. Kate in the office was very nice and helpful.
No amenities. It looks like there was once a restaurant and bar. They should get that up and running again. I know that would increase the price but it is needed. Our shower was not very clean and the room, including the wooden floor, was very dusty which triggered my asthma.

The room was a high ceiling and comfortable with above spa tub. A nice field to walk our dog and close to several beaches.
Not sure I have one at the moment.

A nice room with easy access. I liked the streamlined check in process. Bathroom was equipped with good quality products. Liked the good coffee and complimentary wine. Nice touch.
Was surprised there wasn't a freshen up service to the room on my layover day.

A welcome package for our dog and a welcome bottle of wine for us : )
When we had an issue with one room - they moved us to an upgraded room instantly.
Not their fault but the well pump was not working.
Dangerous to walk anywhere on the hi way.

The view and the setting are spectacular, the room was nicely arranged with plenty of counter, tabletop, and bench space to put out belongings.
The fan noise: you needed the fan to cool down the room, but it woke us up at night... Also I think the light over the bathroom sink was burned out

I liked the view and the tiered style of the rental layout.
The bed was AMAZING! So comfy and cozy with the fireplace.😊
The sound between rooms was loud, luckily I was provided with earplugs.
Windows were hard to see out of due to ocean salt spray marks.

The property is really nice. Very clean and really authentic to the area. Nice view.
It would have been nice to be able to walk into town but the area was lovely.

Other than the power outage everything was great!
I am being honest that we enjoyed everything but the power going out right when we needed to get up on a cold morning to get ready for the day.
That was not ideal. Had to use our phone lights to use the bathroom.

Location, grounds, view, comfy bed, large room, nice patio, complimentary wine. Nice they provided ear plugs as the freeway noise was loud but only during the day.
Our room had a crappy floor coming loose, door squeezed. Door code didn’t work but was useless because you couldn’t see it at night. Luckily had a key.

The staff / manager were all wonderful. Kind. Welcoming and the best ever to make sure our stay was perfect. Will be our go to place when visiting this beautiful area. Love Mendocino and especially Little River.
Loved it all.

I can hear the ocean from my room. It’s a quaint, small property that has maintained grounds and friendly staff. The room is equipped with a fridge, microwave and coffee maker.
The lack of food is inconvenient because there is nothing available in the area unless I get in my car and drive.

Very comfortable bed and bedding. Nice gas heating stove
Motel building is old with minor cosmetic upgrades, very thin walls, heard every snore and conversation on either side of our room. Hot water in shower a mere drizzle and lasted 5 minutes only!
5.0 / 10.0
Good exhaust fan in the bathroom, very good complimentary coffee in the room.
Two very uncomfortable, tiny chairs. No table, just a small drink table between the chairs. Minimal counter space. The flooring could use an update. The beds were fairly comfortable but the feather pillows, or whatever they were filled with gave me an asthma attack.

This was the cutest property that was so incredibly dog friendly. The staff were wonderful and so kind. Anything we needed, they helped us out with! Our dog, Indy, loved this place and we are already planning our trip back next year to visit Beauford (the friendly dog!).

Great location, quiet, beautiful views of the ocean. Check in and out was seamless. We had our two frenchies with us, we saw other dogs as well, appreciate the dog friendly space! Clean, beautiful room. We will stay longer next time.
Not the property but note that restaurants close relatively early so you’ll want to bring food if you’re arriving after 8 pm.

Pretty setting. Lots of greenery.
It would be nice to sit on our deck of the Rose cabin and be able to see the ocean. Unfortunately, the bushes need to be trimmed, so I had to stand on my tippy toes. The door to the deck is also in need of repair.

Great location, we were given adjoining rooms with a connecting door in the middle. Big plus. The local wine was a nice touch. Convenient check-in process.
The remote check in was a bit confusing at first. Their form wanted my credit card details even when the booking was paid for. It was not clear initially whether they were double charging or it was just incidentals. Perhaps they can streamline and better explain the process. It was also a bit inconvenient attaching copied of ID while on the road.

The bed was comfortable.
The WiFi is horrible (and there is no cell service in the area). The building is old and not updated. The tiles in the bathroom - sink and shower and cracked and there’s mold everywhere. The wood flooring has severe flooding damage. You can see out the door while it’s closed and locked (the door to get in the room is outside). The hot water only works when you put the pressure at 1/2. The walls are extremely thin. It is contactless check-in but they email, call, and text about 50 times before during and after your stay.

It is located in a quiet area. The kitchen is functional. The night view of the stars on the upper level is fantastic. The dog prove fence is a plus.
No curtains in the upper level bedroom.

Location and ocean view
Paper thin walls. Had family in adjoining room up until past midnight. Could hear all conversations, loud or normal!
Took quite a few minutes to get hot water. So much for water conservation. And water pressure for shower pretty weak.
