Rooms were very clean beds were very good , beds were very comfortable.
Restaurant was very good Breakfast, customer service was excellent a restaurant is a real sleeper.
Would recommend this Best Western Garden Inn and restaurant to anyone. Great customer service motel and restaurant. I will be back.
The property is laid out nicely. There are parking spaces for each room right in front of one’s assigned room which was great for easy unloading and loading one’s vehicle. The bathroom had a long sink which allows enough area for each person. The bathroom was nice and clean. I personally appreciate that the shower head was not way high up and there was decent water flow. The room was a nice size with two queen beds. The sheets were very comfortable and the duvet was the right weight. We also found the pillows to be comfortable! The sliding door had a great curtain that darkened the room pretty well. The downside was that there is a long window in the bathroom area that was uncovered, so that let light in. Our room was nice and quiet! My husband appreciated the coffee station with Wolfgang Puck coffee and Creamora. We would definitely return to this Best Western!

Comfortable room. Nice jacuzzi. Good laundromat. Beautiful area.
The room is spacious and the property is very well-maintained. Super comfortable. The breakfast is not complimentary, it is more of a restaurant with reasonable prices.
Always have the best experience everything is so clean and the staff is amazing breakfast is extremely convenient and quick laundry area is clean and cheap overall quiet and peaceful
Our room was spacious and the bed was comfy! The pool was a little cold but adjusted to it nicely. The hot tub we had all to ourselves although when the jets were on, it overflowed with so many bubble suds like a washing machine out of a movie! But temperature was good. Just wish they would open spa 7am instead of 9am. The coffee in the lobby was delicious and hot and they use Farmers Brothers! If you are in the Santa Rosa area, this was a nice stay overall for the price!
My room was clean and already warmed up as it was a very cold, windy day. The restaurant for breakfast was clean, staff was friendly and the food delicious.
Nice little cafe on site. Good food and reasonable prices.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Everything was great and we will definitely stay here again. The only issue we had were some sugar ants traveling from the window in the bathroom to the sink and microwave area. We just made sure to not leave any food in that area. Otherwise, room was very clean and we really enjoyed the hot tub. The garden cafe had really good food and very good prices! We wil be back again in September!
