4.2 Mediocre
Pros:Room, and beds were big and comfortable.
Cons:Air conditioner was noisy. Bathroom small and cold No TV at room, and very poor wifi Aesthetics of outside shabby and ugly Parking lot quite muddy, good news now for CA Outrageous price. I guess it's Big Sur!

8.2 Very good
Pros:Great place to stay! Quiet, clean, great restaurant and the river is perfect to sit and relax next to. The only bad things I have to say are the gas price was outrageous at the gas station there, and there are no phones in the rooms. If there was a phone, I would have been able to make reservations to go horseback riding.
