The desk staff was great, friendly and welcoming. The room was better than expected, bed comfy, plenty of coffee/tea/creamers. A/c and heater worked well and was quiet. Shower was hot with great water pressure. Definitely would stay again!

Amazing experience right outside of the Redwood Forrest park. You literally get to sleep surrounded by Redwoods! The town of Trinidad was beautiful less than a mile away and full of little restaurants and shops. The sunset on the coast was a must see and something we will never forget
