Beautiful stay at Fort Bragg
We loved our stay and the area around it was nice for walking the dog. Also at the end of the road where hotel was we found a beautiful cliff area for walk and photos. I think you had a nice tub/shower combo which I liked.

Had to stay in part of the hotel that was across the street- because somehow they thought we had a pet… mini golf wasn’t included in the price of the hotel- it was still $7 per person- very misleading. Wanted a receipt for my $100 deposit- but couldn’t get one…

The hotel rooms are super well insulated, you can't even hear a car engine start outside. The only downside is that there is a grab and go breakfast, but no sit down continental breakfast.

Excellent stay. Best mattress in 8 nights! 3-4 walkable restaurants. There is mini golf very, very, close by. Almost on site. Fun goofy way to unwind after a long day on the road.
