Premium mattresses, generous space to unpack and sit, and a cozy, cabin‑like atmosphere make it feel more like a retreat than a standard airport hotel.
Queen Rooms with a Woodsy Vibe
Single queen rooms, some with balconies, are ideal for couples who want a snug, budget‑friendly nest. Reviewers note the rooms feel larger than expected and appreciate the peaceful setting and outdoor patios that reinforce the “camp‑style” charm.
All rooms include:
- Premium bedding for restful sleep
- Flat‑screen TVs with cable/satellite
- In‑room coffee maker
- Microwave and refrigerator (perfect for leftovers from Fisherman’s Wharf)
- Free high‑speed WiFi
- Work desk, iron, and ironing board
The property is 100% smoke‑free, which helps keep rooms and balconies fresh for sunset drinks or a quiet night in.
Amenities That Support a Romantic Escape
While this is not a high‑end resort, it delivers strong comfort and value that couples appreciate:
- Complimentary breakfast so mornings can start slowly together without rushing out to find food.
- Well‑kept grounds with a quaint, wooded feel that guests often describe as unexpectedly charming for an airport‑area hotel.
- Balconies and outdoor patios in select rooms, adding private open‑air space to share a glass of wine.
- Reliable WiFi for planning the day’s coastal drives or streaming a movie at night.
Business services (print, copy, fax) and FEMA approval for government travelers underscore the hotel’s functional side. Still, they also make it a hassle‑free pick when one partner is mixing work and romance.
Note: The property does not offer air conditioning; climate is generally mild, but couples who prefer cooler rooms should plan for open windows or fans.
