Wine Valley Inn

8/10 Good
"The room was spacious and clean, staff was welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The hotel was pet friendly and even gave our dog some treats when checking in. The only complaint I had was the water pressure for the shower was weak, which it took more time to rinse off. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back to stay again."

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay at The Marlo! The space was clean and comfortable with thoughtful touches like the lawn games in the front and back courtyards, a common space, and plenty of towels in the room. Parking was free and convenient as most nights we were literally parked directly outside our door. The staff was kind and helpful; and the property was just a short walk away from all of the shops and restaurants."
