The owners have obviously put a lot of effort into upgrading the rooms. Very nice layout, very clean, and the bed was very comfortable. An additional chair for reading/relaxing would be appreciated. Next step would be external upgrading(landscaping, etc), but we would definitely stay here again!

Perfect prize and location! (+ pet friendly)

The stay at Solano Inn was perfect for our family! It was dog friendly, they allowed us to check in around 10pm and we were greeted by friendly staff. The room was lit from the outside, clean, and huge. It featured a kitchenette with microwave and mini fridge, two waters, and utensils. There was a twin size bed and small table + chairs in the first room and a large king with an en-suite. Perfect price and we’ll definitely be back when we stay in CT!

Nice place!

Cycling down the Airline rail trail as part of a 5 day tour. Wonderful location close to trail, clean, quiet and a relaxing bath and bed. Breakfast spot across the street has superb breakfast bowls.

Several things in the room did not function including the deadbolt. The bath tub mat and rug were dirty. Not our best experience.
