    What appears to be a blood stain on the fitted sheet
    John K.

    Worst experience I have ever had. There is no lobby, just a bullet proof window to speak through where you can barely even hear them. Had to walk back to the bullet proof window 3 times within 20 minutes on day 1 of my stay because the room key kept deactivating. Only after the 3rd time did the lady tell me that if they get ANYWHERE near an electronic device, the key deactivates. I've never heard of that. Even after keeping the key far away from any electronics, I still had to get it reactivated 5 more times throughout my stay; almost every day. They actually had the nerve to suggest that I didn't know how to open a hotel room door so I even took a video showing them it wasn't working. Once I got in the room, there where cockroaches; poop and blood stains on the sheets; and black stains on almost all of the towels. House keeping never came to my room (stayed for a week) so I had to track them down with their cart just to get basic necessities like toilet paper and soap. Don't even try the wifi because it's useless. Spoke with the owner about my horrible experience upon check out and she tells me that "we could have addressed these issues at the time but you didn't bring them up." Regardless of when I bring it up, what are you prepared to do about it? She just shrugs her shoulders. I ask her specifically what she would have done to address it at the time and all she could say on repeat like a broken record is "well we could have addressed this at the time." Clearly wouldn't have done anything to address it. I had already killed the roaches so what exactly would you have done? Given me another room? That would have been my 3rd room since getting there. Why would I want another room? So I have to tear that room apart looking for more roaches as well? Absolutely unprofessional and unacceptable. WILL BE speaking with health department.

    do not stay here I seen beg bugs and they had charges a extra $60 on my card and I didn't even stay there because of the bedbugs check yall bed

    "Bed Bug Infested" So, I stayed here a while back I just didn't get around to leaving a review. I was giving them the benefit of the doubt to make it right for me. But of course they didn't. On September of 2018 I booked a one night stay at this hotel hoping to get some rest and sleep. However, I was awaken just two hours into my stay by this unpleasant itch on my arms, neck, and face. When I finally awoke, one of my eyes was half shut and I had welts all over my body. I got up off the bed and turned the sheets inside out only to find a number of well-fed bed bugs crawling on the linens. I took my phone out and started recording. I smashed a few with my finger and blood squirted from them so I knew they had just fed. They were all over the place. I check in the creases of the mattress, under mattress, they were everywhere and of all sizes. So, you know they where breeding. I went to bathroom to see the damage. One of my eyelids had a welt on it that swelled enough to shut my eye. I had bites on my arm, back, neck, and face. I went to the office to let them know that they had a bed bug problem but of course they denied it. I told them I wanted my money back that I'm not staying there. They replied by saying that It was too late that I had already checked in and that there are no refunds. Even after I told them they had bed bugs. They did not want to hear it so I asked to speak to the manager but of course he wasn't there. I reiterated that I'm not go back into that room and that I wanted a refund. The hotel was completely booked so they did not have any more rooms available. I asked for a refund once again so that I could stay somewhere else. But again they did not want to give me a refund. So I told them that this was not the last time they will hear from me, so I took out my phone a showed them the video and pictures I took of the bedbug infested room and to my surprise they didn't hesitate to give me a refund. I contacted the health department and followed up with them making sure that they take care of there infestation but not sure how that went. I only hope that they did check up on them and that they learned their lesson. But I really doubt it. I'm sure they re-booked that room the same night I left.

    I booked a room for 2 nights and when I got to my room and moved the sheets to lay my baby down . I noticed something black crawling on the bed I go check it out and it's a huge bed bug. Of course I pick up my baby off the bed and pack up and go to the front desk and ask for a refund, the Indian guy at the front desk was very reasonable but I wanted my refund right there and then he called his manager and the Indian lady that came out was already upset and when I explained to her what was the problem she accused me of bringing it to the property. I was livid why would I bring a bed bug to a hotel with my kids. She was being very unreasonable so I called the police and they came out she went to check the room because she said "people come do their work & want a refund" first I'm not a sex worker I was here with my 2 kids, the cops were very helpful in this situation and I was able to get a full refund

    Giving 4 stars cause the front desk night cleak service is slow and slightly rude . But other then that day time managers and owners are amazingly great people. There room has been upgraded with flat screens on walls no more smells like pinsole .i would definitely will comeback price is reasonable even on holidays . Better price are travalocity , cheaphotels and hotels webs are great for it . There is a $50 cash or creditcard deposit but u get that back time of check out . Tacobell gas station 238 hwy 580 880 680 are next to highway .uniquely build and improving :)

    Maybe me and my woman might have standards that most people would find TOO HIGH??? But Budget Inn of Hayward is NASTY!!!!!!! The walk to the room is filthy. Dirty walkways to the rooms. The railing had NEVER been cleaned. The pictures on trivago don't match the actual rooms. The bathroom door in my room is so dirty its scary. I wish I could show you pictures. The tub was horrible. I booked this shit on trivago for $100.00 dollars. Trivago I want my money back with interest. Trivago should stay in some of the places they offer us on their site. Wow! Raise your standards folks. NEVER AGAIN! SAVE YOUR MONEY AND PAY A LITTLE MORE. Go somewhere else. Quick, fast and in a hurry. It all about standards.

    DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!!!!!!! I advice you not to come here if you have a family and your just want a hooker ! The place is dirty and the staff is horrendous!!!! I came here with my family of 3 and my daughter had found a baggie if drugs !!!! We told the lady at the front desk who said she would give us a full refund, later the refund never came so we asked the general manager who was an asshole about the situation ! He didn't give us a refund and did nothing about the baggie of drugs in the room ! I have never had worse service in my life and would recommend everyone to stay away from this place!!! I wish I can give this place -1000 stars honestly the workers should be ashamed of themselves as well as there mothers cause they raised such awful people !!

    MaryJane A.

    ROACHES!!! I found roaches in my room along with pincher bugs and Rollie pollies. The manager had a huge issue about it and tried arguing about it to cover his ass. Talking about how they removed the carpet to get rid of them. We've stayed here before and he wants to say one time is no big deal but one time is enough and we will not be returning. This place deserves no stars it needs to be shut down. The manager needs to suffer the consequences of his arrogance. How do you refuse someone their money when they find roaches and no longer want to stay.

    This Place sucks ass I checked out earlier today! When I checked in the room smelled like smoke and mold!

Our host was especially kind and made sure we were well taken care of. There was actually a little mix-up with my reservation and it had accidentally been cancelled, but they handled it so graciously and accommodated us without any issue. They even allowed us to choose where we wanted to sit, which I really appreciated. We also added the champagne tasting, and it was such a lovely addition to the afternoon. Everything felt unhurried and enjoyable. It wasn't overly crowded when we visited, which made for a wonderfully quiet and pleasant afternoon. We even stayed a little beyond our allotted time, and they graciously let us continue enjoying ourselves without making us feel rushed. One small thing to mention: our table was closest to the ostrich enclosure, so there was occasionally a bit of a barn-like smell. It honestly wasn't a big deal for us, but if you're particularly sensitive to smells like that, I'd recommend choosing a table a little farther away. Overall, we had an amazing time and would absolutely come back! It's such a beautiful and unique place to spend an afternoon, especially with the girls.

Our first visit was in 2023 when they had just opened less than a year. We stayed in an Arbor Cottage, which was the standalone cottage with a super spacious and luxurious bathroom and outdoor shower. Second stay was in 2025 in which we stayed in the Rambler, which also had a spacious bathrooms and outdoor shower and back patio. Downside was that our room was located all the way at the top of the hill by the employee parking, making it a trek to and from the pool. Our most recent stay was in a Acre room, which I think was the best for our family. It was quite spacious with living area but the bathroom was much smaller than the Arbor and Rambler, with no outdoor shower. But in all honesty, it was perfect because my boys cared more about the swimming pool than anything else. During this last visit, we were immediately greeted by Tom, and Isiah helped with our checkin. They were incredibly attentive and helpful. Our previous visits did not have such a warm checkin experience. I also appreciate that they put us in a room closer to the pool. There really is no reason to leave the ranch once you're checked in. The food onsite is incredible, but pricey (it's nominal considering you're already paying a lot to stay though). I will admit they used to have a great deal where kids eat free, and I wish they brought that back. And a must try is the lavender morning bun from Gavel! It's perfectly flaky, smooth, sweetened just right with the lavender sugar that isn't overwhelming. I wish I had bought more to bring home! Overall this is a wonderful resort worth the splurge, especially for families even if it doesn't seem like it at a first glance. They have a shallow kiddy pool as well, and lots of activities for kids on site. There's also breathtaking views from the adults only pool at Halehouse and from Infinity Hill. Totally recommend the splurge if you can!

We played a variety of the machines, but the most luck we had was with the Top Dollar Machines, the others weren't lucky this time around.

They were setting up for Karaoke (Friday/Saturday nights). There's so much to explore with all the knick knacks. The playlist in the dining room area was a wide range of music - I don't know how to explain it but you're listening to "It's a Small World" and then "Sweet Caroline!"

I literally walked outside and then walked back in when I finally found it and was embarrassed!

Our server was doing her best on her own for the entire establishment and we respected her situation. The Gabby's Jolt was merely strong and seemed to be missing ingredients listed on the menu.

We ate two servings of bread an do bitter while we waited for the entrees. The filet was tender and seasoned well in addition to being cooked a bit over medium, had a large portion of spinach and mashed potatoes, and came with the same red wine reduction sauce as the mushrooms which we found a bit odd. The minutely seasoned halibut has to have been the tiniest piece of fish we've ever seen served and only had six small potato quarters and like 6-7 stalks of asparagus with it.

    Amazing homemade German food!…read more We tried this restaurant on a recommendation while visiting the area, and we were absolutely delighted by both the food and the service. We ordered the bratwurst, red cabbage salad, German potato salad, potato pancakes, spätzle, and Jägerschnitzel. Every single dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. It was honestly hard to pick a favorite because everything was so delicious, but if I had to choose, the Jägerschnitzel absolutely stole the show! For dessert, we had the freshly baked apple strudel, and it was the perfect ending to an incredible meal. You could taste how fresh everything was--from the flaky, buttery pastry to the warm apples and even the homemade whipped cream. It was absolutely delicious. This is a great spot whether you're dining as a couple or with a larger group. If you're planning to come with more than five people, I'd recommend calling ahead to see if they can accommodate your party with a reservation. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Guerneville!

We chatted with the German owner who was doubling as a bartender, who was very nice. We loved the German influences in the bar, as we had just been to Oktoberfest in Munich. The owner's daughter Sarah runs the kitchen. My husband had a pork tenderloin schnitzel "Vienna style" ($20) and I had a jaegerschnizel with mushroom gravy ($20) and both were excellent. We split the potato pancakes (two with sour cream and apple sauce, $12) which were served crispy but tasty. They had a nice German beer and wine list. We finished with a delicious apple strudel to complete a lovely meal. I recommend this restaurant for tasty dinners in a unique venue.
