“A comfortable place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 7, 2012

Carlin is a couple of blocks off the main drag in Calistoga. It has a small number of rooms. It's an older building, but well maintained, and very clean. It has a pool and hot tub heated by spring water. When we were there, it was very quiet, and we had the hot tub to ourselves. I recommend it.

Room Tip: Room 8 was quiet.

“Nice Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 25, 2012

Got a mini suite with a full kitchen and pull out couch. Clean room. Gas grills were available to use, as well as a pool and hot tub. Great value, especially when you can use the kitchen or grills to save a bit on meal. Will definitely stay again.

“Step back in time”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 12, 2012

The opportunity to stay in a retro one bedroom cottage made us feel like we were thrown back into the 30's, and we imagined what life was like in the old days when these cottages were built and were residences. The cottage was spottless and spacious with a full kitchen, living room and bedroom...even a front and back porch! We would much prefer to stay here, which afforded plently of space instead of a conventional hotel room!! (And at a very affordable price). Gas barbeques and patio tables are available, and a very clean pool. Don't be put off by the old motorcourt appearance and the clientele that usually inhabit them...these cottages are for the wine country tourists! Places like this will not be around forever...do yourself a favor and experience it...you won't be sorry.

Room Tip: We stayed in #9 which was in the back and very quiet, and were able to park our car just outside our...

Nice cottages and friendly staff in this Irish getaway. Pool ans especially the hot tube were very nice and relaxing.
