Mendocino Hotel & Garden

It was old and authentic.

It was pretty basic. No tv, but remodeling starts tomorrow. I hope they don’t ruin any of the antiques or the authenticity of this old hotel.

I was too tired to continue traveling by the time I got to Mendocino, I am glad they had a room for me! The lady at check in was great.

I always like a well lit room. Most hotel rooms I end up in have less light than I prefer. But the view from the room where I stayed was very nice.

Enjoyed the ambiance and how period correct it was.

Location

Front desk clerk acted if she was put out by anything you asked her, very short with you and not at all friendly. (The clerk sun morning for check out)

I loved the historic, old world feeling of this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. I had a small issue with my room but the woman immediately rectified the issue and I got into a new room. So, no problem. I appreciated the refillable shampoo, body soap in the shower, to reduce plastic single use waste. Please continue with that in the room, by replacing the plastic drinking glass, and single use lotion and soap with refillable options. Small steps, but it would be appreciated to all who care about plastic pollution. It also would save money, in the long run, rather than constantly buying single use disposable products.

The hotel, while historic does need some updating But I hope that with the updating they still keep the same historic feeling, which makes it so special.
