This is the first time and last we stay at this motel. The rooms are very outdated and the carpet smells. As soon as, you walk in it smells stale as if it’s been a closed up room. If you want a good night sleep don’t stay here. The walls and ceiling are so thin that you can hear the other guests flush the toilet. We stayed on the 2nd floor and you can hear other guests talk and hear them walking and running on the floor above you. For the price we paid we expected more. They have no cable and their doors are so outdated and feel insecure.

Very expensive and outdated rooms. For the price, they only offered coffee and donuts for breakfast. The rooms smelled bad, the shower was terrible, and the air conditioner was extremely noisy and barely worked. The beds were also very uncomfortable. Definitely not worth the money.

The parking was easy as well as the check in. The location was very convenient with everything in walking distances. I've been to Solvang many times but have never stayed here. I would stay again.

TV didn’t work, excuse was “well we only have basic cable”. Wifi not accessible from our room. We were told that we were “too far from the office”. Management was dismissive and rude.

Parking felt limited, like one spot per room. The room we stayed in had a couple extra doors, like one door was for an adjacent room, but the other door was a mystery so it was hard to sleep soundly when the door made us nervous.

Great location at the edge of the village. "Breakfast" included was coffee, tea, and "Danish" pastry, not worth the trouble. During our three-day stay never got housekeeping service.
