Oxford Suites Sonoma County

10/10 Excellent
"Ok, this place is really nice, especially for the price. They have a free cocktail and snack in the evening, and a nice breakfast included. My room had a small kitchen with stove, micro, sink, and 3/4 size fridge. It had a hideabed, a table, and the living room was divided from the bedroom by a wall, so it felt like 2 rooms. Super impressed for what I was looking for. Great that a casino is just right down the road."
