Reviews Summary
This summary was created by AI, based on recent reviews.
Powered by AI
The Best Western Dry Creek Inn receives mixed reviews, with guests praising its clean, comfortable accommodations and handy location. However, some reviewers point out that the atmosphere can be marred by issues such as poorly assembled furniture. While the hotel's amenities, including a pet-friendly policy, satisfy some guests, others find them lacking, particularly noting the dated bathrooms and missing breakfast offerings. Service quality at the hotel is generally good, though not without inconsistencies. Despite the hotel's strengths, several guests question the value, considering the cost versus the amenities provided.

We have stayed at this location several times. It is a no frills solid choice for a budget conscience traveler. The location is close to wineries and town . The staff was very friendly. The rooms are a bit dated, but totally fine.

Hotel's Favourite
Room was quite nice. The hotel is currently being renovated and appears abandoned from the street. If you pursue it, you will find a very decent hotel and staff. Even the room we used had not yet been redone and was comfortable. I would look forward to the new rooms when ready.

The management at this hotel is heartless. My daughter unexpectedly fell ill so we had to cancel our trip. Hotel refused to refund our money because we were outside of cancellation window. Absolutely absurd - like I preferred the pediatrician’s office over wine country.

Dear Jcsgolf: Thank you for taking the time to post your review. We are sorry to hear about your daughter becoming ill and wish her a speedy recovery. Unfortunately, your reservation was made with Priceline a third party reservation service. Therefore, your relationship is with them and we require their customers to abide by our hotel polices and enforce our 72 hour cancelation policy. Although we are unable to offer you a refund, if your reservation was made directly with our hotel we would be able to allow you to use your deposit for a future stay in 2024. When using a third party reservation service the rules are different and thus hotel policies are enforced and are non negotiable. If I can provide you any further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me directly at the hotel. Sincerely, Erik Neztsosie General Manager Best Western Dry Creek Inn

I made a reservation here for the day after Christmas 2023, when I was going to be driving from the SF Bay area to my home in Washington state. My wife and I wanted to spend the night in Healdsburg to visit friends. I guaranteed it with a credit card, and accepted the cancellation policy requiring us to give notice 4 days before arrival date if we needed too cancel. On the 24th, our car developed what turned out to be a radiator leak. Since there was clearly no way we were going to be able to get it fixed by the 26th, I called the hotel and asked for an exception to the rule. They told me they would cancel the reservation, but they would still charge my credit card, because they did not allow exceptions to their 4-day rule, so we wound up paying for a room we did not sleep in. This seems pretty unreasonable to me, especially if they then re-rented the room to someone else. We will not be staying at this or other any other Best Western hotels again.

Dear Kcannon: Thank you for taking the time to post your comments regarding our hotel's cancelation policy. We are sorry to hear about the car trouble you experienced and hope you were able to resolve the problem. On the day of your confirmed reservation, December 26. Our hotel received a call from Best Western's Customer Care Department at 11:00am requesting your reservation be canceled. When the request was denied, a vulgar word was used to the customer care agent and the call was promptly disconnected. Unfortunately, our hotel nor do any other hotels I am aware of cancel guaranteed reservations on the day of arrival without penalty. Our hotel has a 72-hour cancelation period which was agreed by you upon acceptance of your confirmed reservation. Whether the room was re-rented or not (which it was not) does not make a difference, since the hotel held a guaranteed reservation for you. I am sorry you were unable to arrive at our hotel as scheduled to pick up your reservation. However, we feel the cancelation policy of 72 hours is upfront, well stated and more than fair. Therefore, I must respectfully disagree with your comment that it is unreasonable. If you should have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Erik Neztsosie General Manager Dry Creek Inn

I stayed at the Dry Creek Inn for two nights (Friday and Saturday) in mid-December, and was very pleased with what I found. I was on the third floor in what was obviously a recently-renovated room. It was attractive, clean, quiet and comfortable - everything a mid-priced motel ought to be - with a great front-desk staff, too. If I'm back in the area, this will certainly be my go-to place to stay.

Other hotels in Healdsburg are far more expensive. Dry Creek in is reasonably priced. The ameniteis are pretty basic, but it is clean and convenient. If you book in advance, be sure to keep track of prices which might go down. If you call you can rebook for the better price.

Dear DevraFos: Thank you for completing a review regarding your recent stay at our property. Your business is very important to us and we value your feedback. By telling us what you liked about your stay and how we can improve, you are helping us deliver a superior experience for you and other guests in the future. I regret you were disappointed that we do not provide breakfast service at our hotel. In December of 2019, (prior to the pandemic) our hotel went to a breakfast package program with Adel’s our on site restaurant located just steps away from the hotel lobby in the parking lot. The breakfast package is available for booking on bestwestern.com. The information is also noted on our hotel web page. All advertising related to breakfast was removed from all hotel controlled web sites in December of 2019. Thank you again for taking the time to complete the survey. We appreciate your loyalty to our hotel and Best Western. We hope you will come back and see us again soon. If I can provide any assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me directly at 707-433-0300. Sincerely, Erik Neztsosie General Manager Best Western Dry Creek Inn

I booked 2 nights here for a wedding as it was suggested by the bride and groom. The rooms were clean, but for the price we paid, staying here was not a great experience - no lobby, no breakfast at all, no robes, tiny pool, signage was not good, and you could hear people in the next room through the adjoining door. I know it's expensive to stay in Healdsburg, but wow, I will not be staying here again, nor will I be recommending this hotel.

Dear Excursion687182: Thank you for completing this review and our in house survey regarding your recent stay at our property. On behalf of our entire team, I would like to apologize for not meeting or exceeding your expectations. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we will be using the feedback you gave us to implement improvements to ensure we offer a better experience for guests in the future. I am very happy to read you found our hotel rooms to be clean. Our housekeeping team takes pride in their job and having clean rooms is of the upmost priority. Unfortunately, from you comments I was disappointed to read having a clean spacious room did not meet your stay expectations. Our hotel is a Best Western Core property and meets all the requirements for a core hotel including our lobby and pool. I regret you were disappointed that we do not provide breakfast service at our hotel. In December of 2019, (prior to the pandemic) our hotel went to a breakfast package program with Adel’s our on site restaurant located just steps away from the hotel lobby in the parking lot. The breakfast package is available for booking on our franchise web site. The information is also noted on our hotel web page. With respect to our hotel's price structure. I regret you felt our hotel was overpriced and not a good value. However, Healdsburg is a highly sought-after destination for those who live in California, particularly Northern California. Since demand for rooms in the Sonoma Wine Country are in high demand our prices reflective this demand. Especially on Friday and Saturday nights. In Healdsburg, we actually are the best price option both on weekdays and weekends, as compared to the other luxury and upper mid-scale properties charging rates starting from over $400 per night to $2,000 per night on Friday and Saturday nights and $300 to $1,800 per night on weekdays. Making our rates 30-60% lower than those same properties on any given day. If you were looking for the amenities mentioned in both this review and our in house survey you would have to stay at one of those upper mid tier hotels at a much greater rate than ours. Thank you again for taking the time to complete both this review and our in house survey. We appreciate your loyalty to our hotel and Best Western. If I can provide any assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me directly. Sincerely, Erik Neztsosie General Manager Best Western Dry Creek Inn
