Staff were great. Room was clean, but the internet, and tv never worked properly all weekend, and there was constant issue with hot water when you showered. Also, staff is only there from 9 to 6.

4/10 Fair

The walls are paper thin so don’t stay here unless you plan to sleep with earplugs. We stayed with our baby, which was a huge mistake. The white noise machine we brought with us wasn’t enough to drown out the noise of the upstairs neighbors pacing the floor all night or enough to block out the sound of neighbors phone conversations or arguments. We spend three sleepless nights here for the Solvang Century. We will never stay here again! Worst part is that the staff leaves at 6pm so there’s no one around the enforce quiet hours.

10/10 Exceptional

Staff went out of their way to make sure we were checked in, settled in and comfortable. We had a room by the back garden and loved the peaceful area they created. The room was spotless and refreshed with whatever we needed. We’ll be back for sure.

It can be tricky trying to find a lux room in Solvang. While the Marlo isnt the epitome of high-end, the room has a nice finish and plenty of space for me and my significant other. It was very quiet and cozy and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a romantic getaway.

Cute and comfy room. Was clean and good location but the WiFi didn’t work and there was a sewer smell in the bathroom. Better when we opened the window but there are only first floor rooms. Staff left at 6pm so no one to tell.
