    The pillowtop addition was lumpy in the middle. We could have requested it to be removed. Steep stairs to the third floor was a bit tough for me. They were going to fix the glass shower door. I'm sure it's done by now. Lovely Attic room.

    The breakfast was very good. The view was nice because it was the top floor.

    Paper thin walls...could hear phone conversation from floor below almost as if they were in the same room. Mattress was *crazy* soft, so if you require firm support for sleeping you will not get it. Bathroom a bit dated.

    Cute little "shabby chic" B&B in the heart of Mendocino. Walkable location. Lovely sea view from the top floor. Delicious morning breakfast delivered right to the door (discreetly.) Very attentive staff.

    Some plumbing issues with the toilet.

    Lovely location in the heart of magical Mendocino. It's a cute accommodation. The staff is friendly. Our room is great, the second time I stayed there. The breakfast is beautifully presented and very tasty. The coffee is also great in the morning. The yard is the best experience in the morning with the sun shining having breakfast.

    We had no issues with our stay.

    Loved the location of this cute little gem. Parking was very easy and thr BnB was easy to find. The views were beautiful. We were upgraded to the little cottage upon arrival since we ended up extending our stay, It had a fireplace that was very romantic and a big soaker tub with jets. Also the beautiful breakfast they delivered to our room was spectacular and well thought out. We loved our stay!!!

    The bed was a little tired, kind of lumpy. The water pressure and extreme hot and cold in the shower made showering challenging.

    We liked the historic nature of the Inn, our room was quaint and cozy, good light, lots of mirrors for the last check before going out, private bath right outside the room and amazing breakfast in the room that also tastes great despite having gluten and nut allergies. Plenty of warm blankets for chilly Mendocino nights.

    Only challenges were the stairs, no television in the room and super soft pillows (were used to firmer ones). Property itself was lovely, our room was spacious.

    Great location, easy walk to the headlands and shopping in the quaint town of Mendocino. The service was great, the breakfast and cookies were outstanding. The Inn had a lot of charm and parking was very easy. Loved there was an attached deck to our room with a table to watch the ocean and enjoy our coffee or wine.

    I only learned after the second breakfast that one could choose the menu. Instead the second day was much like the first where the centerpiece was a kind of baked biscuit-like item that was undercooked and heavy. But this wouldn't stop me from returning to this place. It was wonderful.

    healthy and beautifully presented.

    Book an upstairs room! This was just the luck of the draw for us, but recommend booking 2nd floor if you have the option and don't mind carrying bags up stairs.

    Adorable Victorian turned B&B. Classic B&B look - lace, wallpaper, etc.. small private bathroom. Next time will not book Stofle room. It sits on the first floor right next to the front door, so we heard a lot of noise from the front door opening & closing and the guests above us, well, let's say we heard everything going on. Breakfast was delivered to the room each morning and it was delicious. Location was excellent. We could walk to the bluff trails and both nights' dinner reservations.

    Front door needed to be square so it closes better. It made a lot of noise because it had to be slammed to shut. It looked like they were trying to fix it. Could use lotion in the bathroom.
