My stay at Solvang Inn & Cottages was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of town, making it easy to explore. The rooms were clean, but the overall feel was quite dated and could use some updating. The staff were friendly and helpful, which added a nice touch to my experience.

My stay at Solvang Inn & Cottages was quite mixed. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Solvang, making it easy to walk to nearby shops and attractions. However, the room itself felt a bit dated and cramped, lacking basic amenities like a desk for work. The included breakfast at the bakery across the street was a highlight, but overall, I felt the room didn’t quite match the price.

Rooms

The room was clean but cramped and outdated. There was a broken dead bolt and some odd smells, making me feel a bit uneasy. It lacked adequate space for my luggage and didn’t have much natural light.

Service

The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They accommodated a last-minute reservation change. Although they did try to make my stay better, it didn't completely offset my concerns about the room.

I loved the central location. It was just a short walk to everything Solvang has to offer, including great dining options like Paula's Pancakes and the fantastic bakery across the street. Plus, it was surprisingly quiet, which added to the comfort.

Breakfast at Olsen's bakery was a treat. I enjoyed a lovely Danish-style breakfast every morning, with fresh pastries and coffee, right across the street. This was definitely a perk of staying here.

My stay at Solvang Inn & Cottages was quite mixed. While the location was fantastic, right in the heart of downtown and close to everything, I found the room itself to be underwhelming. The bed was only mildly comfortable, but the linens were too thin for my liking. I did enjoy the breakfast voucher at the bakery across the street, which was a nice touch, but the overall atmosphere felt dated and a bit rundown.

I had a pleasant stay at Solvang Inn & Cottages, though it wasn't without a few drawbacks. The location couldn't be better, right in the heart of Solvang with charming shops and eateries nearby. I enjoyed the complimentary breakfast from the bakery across the street, but the noisy air conditioner was a bit bothersome during the night. Overall, it met my needs for a comfortable and convenient stay.

Overall, I found my stay to be average. The location was a major highlight since it was within walking distance to so many shops and restaurants. However, the room left much to be desired, particularly with the outdated furnishings and some cleanliness issues. It served its purpose for a one-night stay, but I’m not sure I'd return.

Rooms

I stayed in room #104, which was quite basic and showed signs of wear. The bed was comfortable enough, but the pillows were flat and the sheets thin. The tiny old television and minimal toiletries were disappointing.
