We had a great time at The Ruse. This was the best stay we had on our California road trip! Every member of the staff was incredibly helpful and kind. The groundskeeper, both front desk workers, and chef for breakfast specially went above and beyond to make sure our stay was incredible.

This is a clean property. Not really comparable to other hotels/ resorts since there are no food options on site other than breakfast. The room and the facilities are well maintained.
