Unexpectedly lovely stay. Staff went out of their way to be kind

Clean and comfortable. Very hospitable with free doughnuts, cookies available for guests. The fire pits are a nice touch but limited numbers mean that guests have to be courteous about sharing.

Nice stay in Buellton

The windmill is such a charming touch! The lobby was cute, welcoming and they have everything you need if you forgot something. The staff was helpful. Loved the donuts stations in the morning: delicious! The room were very clean and very comfortable. I love the privacy and I’m so glad they accept dogs! Only 8 minutes from Solvang. Close to Buellton cool coffee shop and outdoor restaurants. They have a bar that serves sausages for a late snack with your drink. Swimming pool and jacuzzi are basic, clean and large and right next to the windmill so super cute. Loved the fire pits everywhere!

Alright stay

We chose the Sideways Inn from the excellent online reviews and the great gym facilities. Both our teenagers are gym rats and used the gym twice a day. The room was spick and span upon checking in. The beds were very comfortable. We love the sliding barn door that led to the bathroom. The guys at the check in desk was very welcoming. However, they didn't share much about the amenities and details of the establishment. I realise that after I visited the front desk while another guest was checking in. The clerk gave the checking in guest the whole spiel about the motel.

Warm welcome with free coffee and doughnuts. Roo.s are modern and really clean. The pool area and jacuzzi are a lovely place to relax. They even light gas firepits on an evening. The perfect ace to relax with a bottle of wine

Good option in Bulleton!

The rooms were a great size and the amenities are great! There's also free coffee and doughnuts in reception, which we loved. The staff is also friendly - offering their help in booking us a taxi, etc.
