"We stayed at 3 places while traveling the coast and visiting the redwoods. The Bayview was the cleanest and most convenient. The staff was so nice, helpful with questions and at the desk each time we dropped in. The beds were clean and comfortable. The restaurant next door had a great selection and was delicious. The jacuzzi tub is in the corner of the main room and is big enough for 2. The building is on the main road which makes it super convenient and is just a short walk to the beach or marina."

"Easy, affordable, clean place to crash for the night. Nothing special so but is updated so not your average motel but no bells and whistles. Location right in town. Not the hotels doing but the town made me a bit nervous. It’s pretty depressed. Other than that, it’s fine for the night."

"Our room was spacious, the beds were comfortable, breakfasts were good and the coffee machine was really nice. The room decor was outdated and our room smelled really musty, which gave the feel that it wasn’t clean. Surprised by that with how well they were rated."

"We were very pleased with the cleanliness and good condition of everything. The view from the balcony was lovely (great place to watch the sun set), the kitchen was open and easy for multiple people to work together in, and the parking was really good. The only issue we had was that the sofas both upstairs and downstairs did not make into beds easily, but we found two airbeds in the closet by the door that solved the problem. The host was really good about responding to our questions."
