North Bay Inn

"Our room was clean upon arrival. In our opinion, the beds were hard and not very comfortable, but they served their purpose. The towels felt rough. Free breakfast isn't offered. There are many restaurants and attractions within driving distance."

"Clean and adequate with good in-room amenities for a budget motel. They need to update this Google description—there is NO “free breakfast.” Fortunately, there are plenty of small places to eat within walking distance. Thin walls, but we were lucky our room neighbors didn’t stay up late."

"I reccomend this place overall and my only criticisms are mostly because of my preferences. My interactions with employees at this hotel have been a mixed bag (mostly good), but it is a nice experience when I stay here. The property is clean, comfortable, and the location is nice in the sense that it's near a lot of things like food and entertainment and is very close to the downtown area. There is variations in noise level because of the street but it's not bad. For me, the only real downside to staying here is their guest policy, which is very strict and comes with an expensive fee if violated. It's frustrating for my situation because I can't drive, so trying to coordinate transportation/social interactions with my local friends/family is a headache when I stay here. It'd be nice if there was at least leeway for brief and reasonable guest visits. The first time I got a room here, my friend had driven me so I could check in and drop off my bags, and was waiting in the car for me. When the woman checking me in asked how many people were staying in the room, I answered, and a man came in from the other room to inform her that I had someone in the car and insinuated I was lying (at least they pay attention to security cameras, I guess). It was a confrontational and pretty off-putting experience to be honest, because I've never had to worry about these situations at other hotels I've stayed in. The price is great though (granted it fluctuates, but still) and the rooms are nice, so this place stays a go-to location for me in the Santa Rosa area. The only things that keep me from leaving 4 stars is that the beds are hard (I always seem to wake up sore here), the shower head doesn't move to let you control where water sprays, the towels are rough, and the mirror projects a constant white light through the power button on it and it is surprisingly stark in the dead of night."
