8/10 Very good

Comfortable stay at a fun property
The room was very comfortable, although the heat/ac unit became quite warm and noisy when it kicked on and off. (should have turned if off completely even though it was 45 degrees at night). The room was quiet and the property was a fun place to stay.
leslie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great hotel, loud guests.
This hotel is great and the facilities are dialed in curated to the max. Yet the clientele can be an issue. I experienced screaming children at the pool, and other issues. You will be in very close quarters with others that might not be very friendly.

The hotel was super cute. Friendly staff, but the road right outside is noisy. We enjoyed the pool, food delivery was delicious & convenient.
Betsy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very noisy heaters woke me up several times during the night. Indoor jacuzzi was either lukewarm or nicely warm. Jacuzzi room needs doors that shut out the cold outside during this time - very cold and unpleasant! Salmon bowl had good piece of salmon but the vegetables were bell peppers, not the variety pictured. Ugh!
Laura, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved this property! The property was fully redone in 2019 so the rooms were clean ans comfortable. We loved the hot spring pools, spa, and playful but casual grounds. I would highly recommend this property for an upscale retro modern vibe in Napa.
Rachel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a very relaxing stay Staff are friendly and the facility is clean Will definitely come back.
Ria, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was clean and nice, but not well furnished or decorated. Most everything was white and plain, so it has a sterile feel. We had a courtyard suite on the bottom floor and there is no insulation from the top floor. You can hear your neighbors stomping around at all hours. Doors to adjacent suites slam shut loudly.

They were working on the street in front of the facility and started jackhammering at 7 am!!
