From what I hear Solarte Inn has been thru a lot in the past couple of years, but as of Mid Feb 2012 it is under new management and I can tell this truly makes a difference. The Rooms: They are modern, clean and comfortable-- I mean what more can you want. The rooms are some of the best in... More

Please note that all previous reviews are dated from 2010 and before. We made a reservation for solarte Inn in February 2012 based on the information on their website.

One night we... More

We had pretty high expectations for Solarte Inn from their website. We also found their emails leading up to our visit really helpful.
