Amazing B&B. The staff was very welcoming and warm. We showed up before check in to store our luggage but because our room was free they let us check in early! Our room was so cute and the breakfast in the morning was so much fun! I loved gathering around a large table with other guests. Also their coffee is amazing! The location is a ten minute walk to downtown Napa and was perfect for exploring the area. HIGHLY recommend

To be fair, the facility was clean and functional. But my issue is with the value for price. I paid $500 a night to stay in an old, crumbling room. It was what you would find in a 40+ year old construction. Eg. bathroom tub was cracked, the shower valve was barely functioning, the door lock didn’t work, etc. This is a Napa problem actually. Just spectacularly expensive- which was expected, honestly- but the value for what you pay is just not there. This should have been a <$200 per night experience. Again, no complaints about the host and cleanliness.

I stayed here back in August of 2022. I did a road trip from Minnesota to California. I was running on very little sleep and exhausted from my travels. It was my first time in California so my first time experiencing the LA traffic. I was super stressed and emotional. I called last minute and very late (10pm) in need of a place to stay. They got up and opened their doors for me. I ended up getting a flat before pulling in and they were more than accommodating. The next morning they helped me change my flat tire and put on my spare until I could get it fixed. The room was beautiful and they made a delicious breakfast. The place was charming and sweet. The owners kindness and willingness to go above and beyond for me made my trip that much nicer. I'll never forget my first time in California. It was a great memorable experience thanks to them!

Stayed at the Old World Inn (Merlot House) in May. The suite was beautifully appointed and clean. Staff was warmly welcoming which lent to the feeling we were home away from home. Would recommend this place to anyone. Glad we skipped the bigger chains for this place. Will return again for sure.

Pro:Great location. Close to town Breakfast was very nice. French toast, bacon, fresh fruit and juiceCharming old home. Con:Contactless /self check in is from 3:00 to 6:00. Why is there an arrival window when it’s self check in????Required to enter down the side of the house. Not the front door. Kinda weird The only time I saw any staff was our server at breakfast. (She was lovely! So nice)Needs some TLC. I was in BIBLIOTECA. The ceiling fan didn’t work. Two thermostats on the wall were non op and marked do not use. Why not remove them? The handle on sink faucet was broken. Actually fell off. Old door hardware had been removed and the hole was filled in with putty but not painted. Too many kitschy signs everywhere.Thin walls and creaky floors. This is to be expected in an older home. Wouldn’t stay here again.
