The interior of this old home was very nice. The bed and sofa were comfortable. The home is on uneven ground so some interior doors do not close tightly. The windows rattled, mainly in the living room, due to some winds the first night.
Overall our stay was wonderful. Quiet, clean and very comfortable. The queen bed and linens were super comfortable. Everything was there to cook small meals, though we did not. It was a nice gesture to have a bottle of wine and K-cups of coffee!The claw tub/shower was appropriate for the Era and style of Bungalow, but anyone with mobility issues may find it a little concerning getting in and out of.We chose this location due to the convenience of Napa, Sonoma and ferry access to San Francisco! Wow- 10 each way to access San Francisco without driving! (We walked to the terminal)My husband wasn't a fan of Vallejo, as a place to stay. We had NO issues with safety, but did not go for any walks at dusk or dark, like we usually do on vacation. We liked that we were able to park off the back alley right next to our Bungalow (136)Communication was a 10/10. Wonderful hosts!

Thank you for staying with us and writing us a review. Our Bungalows are in the desirable St. Vincent neighborhood with close access to waterfront pedestrian path to the Ferry and nature trails. Many of my guests jog on these pathways and have really enjoyed it. Do keep us in mind for your next trip or for friends and families!
Everything was great! The house was clean and perfect for my long weekend getaway. If you aren’t familiar with the area, there are lots of hills, so if you are planning to walk place just be aware.

Thank you Sandy for staying with us! We appreciate your support and patronage.
The environment was incredibly peaceful and the cottage itself was very comfortable and cozy. I would suggest for future visitors to check the heating vents. Wide open in the bedroom was too warm for me. Once I realized I could close the vent just a little I slept much better. Because it was “winter” due my stay outdoors was not used.
This spot, the house behind the houses part of a trio of small homes on the property with it’s own parking off the alley. Beautiful interior with a great tub and comfy bed. The neighborhood is near the waterfront in Vallejo - many of the places in this area have been renewed. The spot was just right for us!

Thank you Kevin! I appreciate your patronage and time to review us! Do visit us again…
Overall good experience. Nice property and comfortable stay. One night there was a police helicopter circling overhead for at least an hour and then on trash day there was a house less individual digging through the garbage/recycling and making a mess, but we enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Great Little Gem
Loved the interior of house and location was very nice/friendly! Hope to be able to return soon on some trip!
The space worked well for our needs and we saw a ton of fireworks over Fourth of July weekend. The bungalow was a little warm and stuffy, but instead of using the nest we just opened up the windows and that fixed the problem.
The property was exactly what I hoped for. It was tidy, homey, and private. I especially loved the private parking and that I could walk to the ferry -- so easy to get to San Francisco! Meehyun was a responsive and accommodating host, made sure I had everything I needed I would definitely stay here again.
Perfect little cottage for stay in Vallejo. Well appointed kitchen. Comfortable bed. Very clean. Will definitely stay here again when I’m visiting Vallejo.
Sweet little house, perfect for the two of us with engagements in Napa and American Canyon.
The house was well appointed, private, charming and comfortable. Parking space, wine and coffee/snacks from our host were a welcome bonus!

Thank you Rose for staying with us! I truly appreciate your time to review us! I’m glad all worked out for you. Do check us out Boutique Bungalows for your next time you visit us or for your friends and families. Best, Meehyun
I’ve stayed at this cozy bungalow before and it’s always clean and comfortable. It’s located in a very convenient part of Vallejo within walking distance to the Ferry to San Francisco. Highly recommended.

Thank you Rachel for being a repeat guests. I truly appreciate your time to review us and visiting us again!
We had a wonderful time is this little place. Owners were very accessible and responsive. The Saturday Farmers Market was delightful and we highly recommend the distillery on Mare Island. Wine tasting in nearby Suisun Valley reminded me of what Napa was like in the 70's. Quaint, rustic and great wines.

Thank you Michael for staying with us and I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay!
My daughter and I stayed at the Bungalow while we were in Napa for her water polo tournament. The location was easy access, and the place was immaculate. The queen size bed was SO comfy and the Braun coffee maker with pods already there was an added treat!
I'd recommend this place to any traveler, single or small family.
This is our second time staying at the bungalows. We found it to be a great location and super comfortable!
The bungalow is very clean and the host has thought of all the little extras. Check in is super easy and communication was easy with fast responses. When in Vallejo we would definitely stay again.
Just a wonderful ferry ride to San Francisco or an easy drive to Napa/Sonoma from this centraly located property

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Very cute bungalow. It was missing a few items or someone may have taken the dishes or maybe we could not locate but one bowl.
The bathroom doors were difficult to shut or keep closed.
I loved the quaintness of the early period style of the home and it was very quiet and comfortable.
If you want someplace close to the ferry an also Kaiser Hospital (which was where my mom was for a bit), I would recommend since it had laundry and a kitchen.
I would recommend. Just need to double check the utensils and dishes.
Thank you to the host for being so accommodating and excellent communication!
I wanted a quiet and comfortable place. Parking was easy, access was easy and it was quiet. Close enough to downtown Napa to go for a nice dinner. Mare Island was interesting and our visit to St. Peter’s church was enlightening. Not much to the town itself. Overall a pleasant experience.
