the view is everything! me & my fiancé decided on candle light dinner on the deck and it was so peaceful and quiet. perfect for a quick over night stay. we stopped thru oakland on our way to portland. check in is pretty late but we got in town late anyway so the 5pm check in ended up being perfect. I give this place a 5 stars based on MY experience. if you're expecting a hotel like experience(washcloths, complimentary toiletries etc) I wouldn't recommend. If you love plants and a beautiful scene BOOK. as you walk up to your room theres a garden! a bell pepper garden! I loved that! flowers too! that paired with the view made it worth every penny❤️
