Hotel room in Rutherford
4.88 out of 5 average rating, 60 reviewsRancho Caymus Inn - Deluxe King
Great experience for our visit to Napa. Centrally located to most vineyards. Very peaceful and tranquil place. Limited access to restaurants. Have to drive. Also, limited access to workouts etc., no close area to go for a run or walk etc., as long as you are ok with running on the Main Street with cars zooming by. Overall, great staff and ambience. We thought it was a little high on the price for the room.
Hotel room in Dorrington
5 out of 5 average rating, 3 reviewsEntire Historic Dorrington Hotel
We had a wonderful time at the historic Dorrington Hotel! Stayed there with two other families (12 people + a baby) and had plenty of space for everyone. The big open space out back was full of snow and so much fun to play in. The Lube Room nextdoor is delicious and nice to have right there. We would definitely stay there again!

Hotel room in Pacific Grove
4.71 out of 5 average rating, 17 reviewsBay View Room at The Old St. Angela Inn
The Old St. Angela Inn is a beautiful, charming, and historic B&B in a stellar location, only a block away from the sea. There is a coastal path where it's an easy walk to Pacific Grove or to the downtown Monterey/Cannery Row area. Angela was an amazing host. I had to change my itinerary a couple of times due to work, and Angela was very kind and accommodating in helping with my arrangements. The food was fresh and delicious, and everyone at the inn was warm and inviting. My room was exquisite, with a view of the ocean and an electric fireplace, which I loved having on those chilly nights. This was my first time visiting Monterey, and staying at the Old St. Angela made the experience even more special. I had a wonderful time and would definitely book again. Thank you, Angela!

Amazing stay and very kind hosts!
Hotel room in Pacific Grove
4.84 out of 5 average rating, 61 reviewsLand's End at The Old St. Angela Inn
This was a second visit to this lovely B&B. Angela is a great host and cook. My partner and I enjoyed the walkability to the pedestrian path way along the cliffs and nearby restaurants on Lighthouse Avenue. The house itself is charming as are the grounds.
Hotel room in Napa
5 out of 5 average rating, 3 reviewsCharming terrace Suite w/ Balcony and Free Parking
The pictures don’t do it justice. We had a beautiful balcony with a fire pit and sofas. And then the next morning was an amazing breakfast with the chef cooking right in front of you. A glass of wine while checking in and then set off as everything is walking distance!!! Location is just amazing. Definitely an amazing and different experience than your normal Airbnb. This is the way to do Napa!
Hotel room in Oakland
4.78 out of 5 average rating, 68 reviewsCharming Courtyard Boutique Hotel Room
I really enjoyed our stay for a concert at the Oakland arena, it was convenient to public transport, secure, quiet and had welcoming common areas where we spent time with our friends who were also staying. The coffee shop downstairs with robot barista was a plus (though I am strictly a tea drinker, haha—my daughter enjoyed it), convenient and friendly! I appreciated being able to store my luggage for a few extra hours after checkout while we explored before our flight left. The courtyard room was quiet and had a relaxing view and atmosphere. Everything was so clean and nicely furnished. Would love to stay again!
Hotel room in South Lake Tahoe
5 out of 5 average rating, 11 reviewsNew luxury private hotel room. Desolation Hotel.
The place was exactly like the photos but I did expect it to be more like an apartment and it really is a hotel . Unfortunately we booked thinking it had a view like the photos but we ended up getting a room downstairs so no view available. The staff is super help and friendly and the amenities too notch . The use of the private beach that is a 10 min walk was definitely worth it although we did think it was beachfront and it isn’t . Other then that a hotel I would definitely book again
