Description: The Innkeepers are Rich and Nancy, a nice friendly couple. They were happy to suggest local activities and had plenty of information about the town, along with the typical tourist brochures.
We stayed in Forget Me Not. The website says it has a microwave, but when I made the reservation it didn't. Not a big deal because there is one in the breakfast room that you can use anytime of day, along with microwave popcorn. We saw most of the rooms (they were booked solid both nights we were there, but we got peeks when people had checked out) and it appears Forget Me Not is probably the worst. It badly needs re-wallpapering as you can clearly see the outlines of what used to be hanging up due to the sun bleached wallpaper. Our room was clean upon entry, but while the bed was made the next day it appears someone forgot to sweep up. It was also very bright, we were able to get an extra sheet hung up over the door (glass paned) and that helped a lot. The bathroom was cramped, there was storage under the sink though.
Breakfast both days offered a choice of eggs (made your way), bacon or sausage, potatoes, toast, V-8 or juice and fruit cup, or you could have what I would call the daily special. Day One it was spice pancakes and Day Two it was spice Belgian waffles (yes, the same batter, but it was good) both with Bacon or Sausage, V-8 or Juice and fruit cup. The bacon was truly outstanding! No refills were offered on the juice or V-8. Rich makes all the food and Nancy comes around to take your order. There are four tables each with their own toaster. You can serve yourself coffee and tea and there's also hot chocolate or cider that you can add hot water to.
Parking was cramped in the small lot, but there was room for everyone. It's a safe area, I felt comfortable walking a short distance in the dark. Soap and shampoo were offered and fresh towels were brought in everyday.
We would stay at the Glass Beach Inn again, but in the main house, not in the little subdivided cottage out back.
Other rooms:
Malaysian and Oriental Jade are in the front and are the best rooms. Victorian Rose was lovely and is on the first floor in the middle with Country Comfort. Schooner Mendocino has a hanging bed that is a bit wobbly, especially if you get a little wild, but it's beautiful. It's on the second floor with Grandma's Attic. In the back of the cottage is Forget Me Not, Wildflower and Cottage in Rose.
