Just got married a week before, so thought we would have a little getaway for a Honeymoon..
I have been to Mendocino in just passing, but wow what a beautiful little place in the world. Wash your troubles away, and enjoy the ocean with each wave caressing the sand, and crashing up against the rocks..
It really is a beautiful place. And check out the small town, stay for a meal, or visit the toy shop, that has a little bit of everything, I was amazed for how small the place is, lol..
Back to the Inn tho, It was a great stay, never been to a Inn before, always hotels, or motels, not just a room. I was afraid we had to share bathrooms, not the case here, we have our own bathroom, and a decent shower to boot.
They severed a nice little breakfast in a basket, nothing crazy big but a nice little something to start your day! They also served wine and cheese 4 to 5 pm.. Nice little bonus, and they have a beautiful patio / gazebo.
The staff were super friendly, although only had 2 or 3 interactions with a couple of staff...
It was nice to meet other people and learn where they come from, Im not a big peoples person, but was nice to interact with some during the wine tasting. other then that we kept to our selfs and just got to see the sights around the town, took some very nice photos...
I would go back here hands down, even tho i prefer a hotel, its a really nice experience and I would do it again..
Hope this review helps, I had alot of fun here.

Fantastic location! Great views of the garden area and ocean. We stayed at the JD house in the queen room with a view.
The room is small and there is nowhere to store luggage or your clothing aside from a small hanging area. The tub is listed as a soaking tub only so if you are hoping the jets in the tub work, they won’t. They have been turned off likely to prevent noise disturbances to your neighbors.
It is walking distance to all the local shops and restaurants and walking paths to views is the ocean from the JD house was only 5 mins. I wasn’t expecting a large room and the lack of storage didn’t bother me, but I could see these things being an issue for someone elderly or someone who had a hard time getting around. I definitely wouldn’t recommend bringing children to this place as it is such tight quarters.
All that aside, I loved the location, thought the room was super cute and couldn’t ask for a better view:) I would definitely stay there again.

It is actually three inns with the Blue Door Inn being the main Inn. Check-in, wine and cheese and if early breakfast is needed you must go to the Blue Door Inn. Staff is nice, responds to calls timely (because no one is at the other Inns, which felt very strange to us) staff are very busy covering three inns. The breakfasts are excellent and compliments to the chef and the cookies are wonderful! The Inns are beautifully decorated but personally when staying at a B&B we would prefer to have all services at the inn we are staying at.
My paper work from Hotels.com said the name of one inn but we were told we were staying in a different inn. It was very confusing and a little frustrating but all three inns are very nice so it was fine.

We stayed 2 nights in the JD house king guestroom for $250/night. I would give it 3.5 stars.
Pros:
-Great location. Walking distance to restaurants, shops, and gorgeous coastal trails.
-Wine + charcuterie hour with complimentary cookies (only for 1 hour)
-Breakfast was good + different each day
Cons:
-Bed was pretty uncomfortable. i texted the guest services # asking if they had any padding for the bed as I was experiencing physical pain after the 1st night. The response i got was basically "no we don't, every room has that mattress and I've never had any complaints." Apparently it was a new employee + i did receive an apology + extra pillows after i asked for some, but it left me feeling like they need to do some customer service training for their newbies.
-Bathroom is SMALL and water pressure is minimal in tiny shower.
-The only fridge is a very small communal one downstairs.
-Breakfast was delivered around 9:20am. It did feel a tad late for breakfast, especially when you want to go out and explore.
-Bedside lamp was on when we arrived, and was burning hot when i went to turn it off.
Overall, i feel like what you're getting for the price just isn't worth it, other than location.

Do you want to feel pampered? This is the place. Arrival service was pleasant and efficient even though we reserved just a couple of hours before arrival. The door house was decorated creatively, we had a fireplace in our room, fireplace in our room and in the gathering room. Breakfast was brought to our door with delicious mixed berry, compote, good coffee. I doubt if you could do better anywhere in Mendocino.

Stayed at the blue door house, Windsor room. Large, clean, modern design and elegant lines - very coastal and tastefully decorated. Enjoyed the wine and cheese and freshly baked cookies. Breakfast basket was nice touch.

We found everything about the Blue Door, to be excellent, and the Baked egg breakfast was so special we had to ask for (and got) the recipe - we will be back.

A wonderful place. The staff was great. The room was lovely.
They provide a breakfast in a basket to your room that is just fantastic--provided you're not on a diet of kale and quinoa.

The town of Mendocino is so very unique and definitely now one of the best places we have ever stayed in around the world. And our stay at Packard House complimented that perfectly.
The accomodation was beautifully clean, tidy and in keeping with the picture perfect clapperboard houses next to am unbelievably stunning coastline.

View of the ocean from our room; free wine and cheese-and cookie- reception. Very walkable area close to the cliffs overlooking the ocean, stores and restaurants.

All the staff we had contact with were very helpful, pleasant. The breakfast was brought to our door each morning and the food was amazing. Each day's breakfast was different from the day before. Eggs souffle, poached another day with roasted potatoes, quinoa w/fruit, yogurt and fruit, orange juice everyday, and great coffee and tea.
We satyed in a converted Water tower that was incrediblely cute and the beds were super comfortable. Great place!

We had a fantastic stay. Room was clean and beautifully decorated, breakfast was delicious and staff were friendly. Great communication. Bathroom could use a bit if updating. Shower was tiny and a bit strange that the coffee bar was in the bathroom. That said, we would recommend to anyone looking for a nice stay in the area. Thank you

The trench in the front of the property makes it difficult to park in front . Also sketchy for walking out. Wish the hot water came on faster, with the water situation what it is in town it would be nice not to have to run the water forever before it gets warm!

The Captains Room was an absolute delight to stay at. Everything was spotless, linens made us want to never leave the bed. We had everything we needed to have the best night of our vacation. Only problem was that we were not able to stay longer.
Highly recommend!

We were assigned a room in the Packard House, one of the companion properties to the Blue Door Inn. Room was lovely, but it did require hauling luggage up the stairs; if we had not been physically able to do that, it would have been an unpleasant surprise. My only other suggestion is that the bathroom was not user-friendly; no place to set out toiletries or cosmetics, when there was adequate space for a shelf to be constructed. But, the wine & cheese (offered at the Blue Door property) were excellent, and the delivered-to-your-door breakfasts were first class.

It would have been nice to get a heads up that we were not staying at the main house. That way we would not have carried our bags all the way.
4.0 / 10.0
Nice property in a great location but missing some very basic amenities for a B&B of this caliber. Pitiful and poorly provisioned breakfast, no cooling device even though the room was very hot, not one chair in the room...

Room selected: King Deluxe at Packard House
Length of Stay: three days, two nights
Pros:
- super delicious breakfast at your door every morning!
- free wine and cheese happy hour!
- super comfy bed
- fireplace was a nice bonus
- soaking tub was WONDERFUL
- view from the Chapman room (King Deluxe at Packard House) was phenomenal. I could see the waves from bed!
- easy to find parking
- location was great, could walk around town very easily
- housekeeping was lovely
Cons:
- soaking tub was plugged in which resulted in air being blown every 10 minutes. This continued after I emptied the tub of water and could not figure out how to turn it off. I tried searching online for instructions but couldn't find any documentation. I ended up calling the overnight innkeeper who helped me figure out where it was plugged in. the jets in the tub were also not quite clean; when I was draining the tub of water there were bits of detritus that were at the bottom which was pretty gross.
- other reviews have complained of ants, I also had some ants in the room. However, this is a coastal town and there are just going to be ants. In my three day stay, I only saw 5 ants and none of them were near the bed which is pretty much the only place that I would freak out about them being.
- other reviews have also complained about low doors and showers. the low door is only at the entrance of the room and is not that big a deal. the shower being small and cramped is slightly true but it's not impossible.
