L & M Motel

Once you get the past the initial Bates Motel vibe (????‍????) —-you will realize that why this truly is one of the best kept secret in Healdsburg.Nothing fancy but it ticks all the necessary boxes——super clean,excellent host (Wanda❤️) and a 10-15 min walk to downtown.
❤️Dog friendly (no pet fee like other hotels in the area!)
????highly recommend

Love it! Wonderful motel,10 minutes from downtown, 5 to the beach. Beautiful rooms and grounds,had the pool and spa to ourselves all weekend. The owner is delightful and super helpful with recommendations. Also the scones and coffee in the morning are nice. A favorite for many years,we will be back!

I'm on a 5 day wine country bike ride and stumbled upon this wonderful family owned motel with a jacuzzi and cozy rooms. The proprietor, Wanda is outgoing, full of information and she bakes the best blueberry scones for guests!

This is our second visit to this little motel and I regret to say I was really disappointed this time. We had a great visit a few years ago but for $125 plus tax we should have stayed next door at the chain motel. The room we had was TIRED and showing all of its age with no charm.
Internet was very dodgy at best. You can easily get on the network and the signal is strong but no data through put for some reason. We are here in February and the place is empty to it cannot be because the bandwidth is being overloaded.
I love the owner; she is so friendly and accommodating it almost hurts to write this negative review but facts are facts and I suggest you come here with the expectation that you will be staying in a lovely property with tired accommodation.
Also, be aware the hotel is at the very southern end of the main drag and quite close to the highway. It is a solid 15 minute walk to the town's main square so wear comfy shoes.
the owner is an avid gardener and the grounds are lovely in the summer which is when we were here last. Understandably the winter months will have the grounds looking less luscious which is a real shame.
We really hope the owner decides to do some upgrades and fixes the internet. Pretty basic stuff really.

Nice, clean, dog-friendly motel run by a family. Hidden gem in Healdsburg especially when you consider the price of other accommodations. It's walking distance (about 10 mins) to the plaza, though with the construction on the main street, it's a little odd to navigate right now. Continental breakfast is complimentary including some of the most delicious scones ever! The lady who runs this place is very kind, personable and will give out recommendations for restaurants etc if you need them .

We absolutely LOVED this hotel! Such a cute place, everything is clean, the rooms are super cute and Wanda the owner was fabulous. She gave us great recommendations of places to go and try and we had a blast. The hotel is just a few blocks from downtown Healdsburg which is really no big deal. --we enjoy walking! A lot of good wineries in the area as well!

We loved this homey, warm hotel! Extra love for the fresh baked scones in the morning AND the amazing pool area! Hot tub, heated pool and sauna! We loved that it's a family owned spot, super close to Healdsburg shops and restaurants.

It's fine. The room was nicely remodeled and the morning breakfast was good although if more people had been there (we were it) we would have to have carried the food back to the room because the space where the breakfast is served is small and with only 2 chairs. The staff is friendly but I feel the marketing on the place is too hyped - like a really hipster-cool old-school motel that you will love. Like I said, it was OK but the price is high (although I guess not compared to all other over-priced places in Healdsburg).
