I liked the funky decor but the concrete floor was very cold, and only a tiny rug on one side of the bed. They advertise a 'continental breakfast' but it was only yogurt and granola, apples and oranges. I was unable to eat that. A continental breakfast should include pastries or something. We like to eat prior to getting back on the road, so this was inconvenient and misleading. Bed was very comfortable though.

The staff were so accommodating and helpful. The area appeared iffy but wasn’t. Quiet, clean, safe and bohemian vibe all around. The decor was so 60’s chic and retro cool. Love it and will be back

This is where Charlie Brown’s hotel is at!

It’s the best place to stay in Santa Rosa, hands-down, especially when it’s across the street from my favorite café in Santa Rosa!

4/5

The service was very nice and the room was cute. The bed was on shelving and not a box spring so it was not very comfortable. We didn’t have any rugs in the room so the floor was a bit cold but not a deal breaker. The breakfast that was included was yogurt and an orange. Everything else was clean and exactly as expected. We walked to Russian River Brewery and it was close enough to not have to call an Uber or a cab.

Awesome little gem

The people who helped us were amazing, and room was so well done. We are familiar with these kinds of converted Motels and sometimes they will round the corners. That was not the case at Astro. Everything feels new and/or perfectly restored. My first time in Santa Rosa but if I ever come back I'm staying here!

Wonderful little gem in downtown Santa Rosa. The customer service was impeccable, made you feel like walking into a mom and pop shop. Don’t know if I plan on returning to Santa Rosa anytime soon, if I do, I will definitely stay here!

Although decorated to look like a mid-century motel, they really needed some flooring (LVP that looked like hardwood would seem appropriate). Pillows were over stuffed and very uncomfortable- Also no place to hang towels except 2 hooks on the back of door (beeded 2 more n xt to the shower). No counter space for toiletries. No towels in kitchenette, Road noise moderate, location in town good and good parking.
