Nice B&B in Eureka. Great staff, and complimentary glass of wine/beer is a nice touch. Breakfast (included) was very good. Strong wifi signal was appreciated. Keep in mind - its an old house, so noise travels. And there was some street noise. Will hopefully return to visit again. Would highly recommend to any travelers.
