Good place to stay - close to wineries, restaurants and shops. The hotel also allows pets and have a nice “grassy” area for them that includes dog bags.
As others mentioned, the breakfast had fresh fruit and cereal.

This motel was perfect for our stay. The rooms were clean, and the employees were all very friendly. The breakfast selection was not very big but everything that they offered was high quality and delicious. I was very impressed, and I would love to come back when we are in the area again.

El Bonita is an older property but is updated and very clean and comfortable. Hot tub and sauna were great. Continental breakfast was on par with similar level hotels and motels. Great location in the middle of Napa Valley. Great value, comfortable room, good amenities and good service. Free parking. I’d definitely stay there again and recommend to friends.

This was great for a small dog. Nice patch of grass directly outside of rooms, easily accessible. Very quiet. Good continental breakfast with fresh donuts, fruit, cereal, and coffee. Can't beat the location either.

Love the motel. Large room, huge bathtub. We were in Room 34a and I think it was recently remodeled. Mini bar area with fridge, microwave and and bar counter. Little patio area on back to sit outside. Picnic table under the trees to sit out and enjoy a glass of wine. In the evening they have a nice fire pit going so we sat out there with friends and enjoyed another glass of wine. Very cute motel. All the front rooms are under construction so it’s a little messy up front so we stayed in the back rooms that were available. we definitely recommend this cute motel for a quick stay in the Napa area very reasonably priced.
