Nice room great patio space. Bed was comfortable plenty of room to move around except in the bathroom, which was a little tight, especially getting into the shower. The mirror was set for someone who was around 5’ 6”..

What a rare find! I expected just a plain motel but Creekside Inn turned out to be one of the best hotels I have stayed in. First, this hotel is super beautiful. It has a elegantly-decorated common yard area with ample chairs and tables under carefully-designed shades. I was busy with work during my stay and sitting in the yard really boosted my productivity. Second, the service and staff are amazing. My flight arrived early and they managed to clean a room first to let me check in around noon. They also offer 24 hour front desk and coffee/hot water. Last, although their continental breakfast is pretty basic, make sure to check out their on-property deli! It is an amazing Italian Deli and serves delicious, fresh and inexpensive sandwiches/ice cream. I could not find such good sandwich and latte at their price even not in California! Sitting in the beautiful yard enjoying great sandwich and coffee really makes a nice memory. I would definitely stay again if I am back in the area.

Great place in a good location. Really beautiful grounds and spacious rooms. Staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast needs a bit more and the rooms are designed in a way that can make parking and neighbour noise seem constant.
