“Close to Town Good Value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 22, 2013 NEW

This is a very nice older hotel with a fine pool. I like the open grass area and it is close to downtown area for eating. Big new flat screens with large rooms that do everything well, good beds with a place to eat on grounds. Really good price for this area. Staff was nice too.

“Nice Little Motel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 18, 2013 NEW

Two couples stayed in two King rooms. They couldn't be more different. One room was large with ample space to walk around the bed, to & from the bathroom,etc. The other room was the SMALLEST hotel room I've ever stayed in. The bed near the wall was maybe 20inches from the wall. With that said, the rooms were fine. Had... More

“Clean and comfortable”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 17, 2013

We stayed in the garden area which was quiet. The beds are comfortable and the room is clean. It met our needs for a two night stay. The staff was pleasant. It is close to the and easy to get to downtown Santa Rosa and to the wine country. Lots of great shopping and restaurants in Santa Rosa.

“Good Price for Wine Country Motel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 14, 2013

I have stayed in numerous establishments near Sonoma/Napa, and for the price I consider this one to be the best deal. It is located in an unexciting, rather nondescript section of Santa Rosa, however it has easy access to the 101 and you'll save a lot of money by staying here. Request a room in the "garden section" which is... More

“Cheapskates making a political statement”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 9, 2013

This place undercuts itself when it doesn't need to. On one hand, the room was nice, the property is well-landscaped, with abundant flowers and everything is clean. On the other hand, they don't offer a free breakfast, as is typical with Best Westerns in this price range, but instead gouge you for a very pedestrian breakfast at a tiny cafe... More

Jim- I'm sorry that you were not satisfied with our breakfast cafe', we get numerous compliments on both our menu and our prices. As for the FOX news channel being our default channel, we have no control over this. FOX news just happens to be the first channel on the TV line-up. In no way is this a political statement.... More

“Wine Country Budget Conscious”

If you need a decent place t stay in the wine country, then BW Garden Inn is the place for you. Simple and clean, remodeled room. Staff was friendly and easy access to the highway. Only issues were a few ants in the bathroom.

“A lovely motel conveniently located”

We enjoyed a lovely stay at this super conveniently located motel on Santa Rosa avenue. The rooms were updated and spacious. The microwave and fridge in the room were an added bonus. While breakfast was not included with the room there was a small cafe on site. Service was friendly but slow thought my son loved his Mickey Mouse pancake.... More

We stayed here for one night while on a road trip. We arrived late and stayed in a room close to the road. Sadly, the garden areas are in the rooms further in the back.
