The only thing we wish we had was maybe a dresser or drawers in the room.

We did not eat there. But, the room was very comfortable.

The complementary coffee was a bit useless. A coffee maker, and cheap instant coffee. Kind of pointless in my opinion.

Property was very clean. Bed was comfortable, sheets, and towels of very good quality so, very comfortable. Bathroom and floors and all spaces very very clean. Very pleasant.

Nothing.

I loved everything about my stay there. Loved meeting the owner of property. She really gave is excellent service.

The hostess was surprised at how much of a discount we had been given when we booked through Booking.com and said that she usually charged $200 a night. This shocked me as at $126 I felt we were paying more than a reasonable price for a home stay in a standard double room with shared bathroom and other facilities

Firstly let me clarify that this is a house stay and not an hotel. It is a large house in a very upmarket neighbourhood in Murrieta but do check your sat nav is taking you to the right place. Ours took us to the other side of town for no apparent reason, I suspect the postcode was the issue but when we used a different app we got there straight away using the same details. The house is where Cardiff Road (the more major road) and Hazel Glen Road meet so you might find it easier to use Cardiff Road and trace the house once you get there. You need to park on the driveway and the hosts give you a pass to display on your dash. When we did find the right place we were met by the very friendly lady hostess. She showed us in to the large two floor open lounge room and up the stairs to our room at the back. There are three rooms available, two standard sized double rooms about 12' by 12' and a third large family room which is at least double the size of the double rooms. the three guest rooms share a common bathroom and I believe that you can make use of the large lounge area downstairs but we didn't test that out. The bedrooms, bathroom and lounge are nicely furnished with a definite lean towards the feminine with soft furnishings and fancy touches. Our room had a large wardrobe which held dressing gowns and we could easily put our suitcases in there to get them out of the way. The aircon is centrally controlled and worked well. There were pringles and the like in our room and on the communal landing there was a coffee filter jug machine with paper cups, creamers, sugars and instant coffee but no ground coffee nor a kettle?? My wife cracked the code straight away and so I put a cupfull of water in the coffee percolator, waited for it to run through in to the jug then added it to the instant coffee to make a cup to take away.

There was really nothing about this stay that I did not like. However, some travelers might want to know there was no television in the room. I’m sure this was notated in the listing, but I was surprised to not have a television.

I’ve been using booking and Airbnb for many many years, but I have never stayed in someone else’s house with them in the United States. However, the host made it very comfortable. This is a large home in quiet neighborhood. And the bed that I slept in was probably one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in. I love that they had lots of towels and washcloths. If you just need a room and a bed for a night or two… Or a few… This place is great, and it was much less than the hotels in the area.

I love this place. I lived in Murrieta for 13 years until 2013, and I know the area well. Now that I live in LA, I return to Murrieta often to visit family. My hosts, Stacey and Kevin, have ruined hotels for me. Balloons and Wine is my new home away from home. I can visit family and go home to my favorite place in Murrieta. Location! Location! Location! There are hiking trails within walking distance, gorgeous parks in the housing track, near Los Alamos Sports Park, French Valley Airport, and close to wineries. There are restaurants less than a mile away, and of course, it's easy to order delivery if you feel like just staying in. The bed is more comfortable than in any hotel. Our hosts, Stacey and Kevin, were friendly, helpful, and just a joy to stay with. It is easy to get to wineries, Old Town Temecula, Downtown Murrieta, Lake Skinner for the annual Balloon and Wine Festival, and much more. I've already booked my next two nights.

Really nothing we didn't like

Had our own privacy, felt like home away from home

I wasn't told - and it didn't say anything in the booking either - about having to pay deposit on top of the charge for the stay. Everything worked out in the end - I even got it back when we returned to the place in the evening, and Stacy kindly let me know by messaging me - but it would've been better had we known about this at the time of booking rather than finding out at check-in.

It was in a very quiet neighborhood, very easy to find, accessible, and the host Stacy was very nice. We booked only one room, but since the person who booked the other one didn't show, she let me use the other room as well. Everything was super comfortable & clean, and my daughter & I essentially had the whole place to ourselves. Everything was just as it had been described. They had everything we needed in the kitchen for cooking dinner & dining. Thank you for a very good overnight stay!

We were shocked to find out the owner would not refund us after we voiced our displeasure in being tricked by the Priceline listing as a 3.5 star hotel she kept insisting that it was a hotel, also the shared bathroom facilities were on a different floor level from the room.

This property was fraudulently represented as a 3.5 star hotel while actually it is a residential vacation rental with that should not be rated with a hotel rating system.

Stayed in August 2023

I was unaware that it is a shared house. I do not prefer that

I love the ceiling fan in room. very unique. The owners accommodated us by letting us check in at 2am.
