Everything was great and the room had features that I can really appreciate. For instance, a sink in the bathroom and outside the bathroom door. Even something as thoughtful as having a card dropbox by the door next to the parking The only downside was the mattress. Both nights I woke up with my lower back and hips aching. I know it was the mattress because I could get up and walk around and it didn’t bother me, but when I laid down again, the ache returned. I ended up sleeping on the sofa in...

The cabin was wonderful. Wish I had known more about it first . Next time I will bring coffee and food. The town didn't have many places to eat, etc. But we were so close to Santa Cruz that it didn't matter. It's a great place for young families. There is no air condition in cabin but the nights were cool and we were comfortable.

If you're interested in experiencing Old California while visiting San Juan Bautista, this is a lovely place to stay. It is fairly recently refurbished in old mission and hacienda style. The room we stayed in was well-appointed, comfortable, quiet and clean. The grounds are also very appealing. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, and even took home a few bottles of their signature wine from Leal Vineyards in Hollister. So far we've opened just one bottle--an 09 Cab--and it was wonderful....
