A very special inn
We LOVED our stay here and will definitely return. The flower gardens were amazing during our August stay. The chocolate chip cookies were yummy. The breakfast scones & gluten free banana bread were outstanding. They even were generous enough to share the recipes. Assistant Melissa was so helpful explaining details of how to make the scones. Innkeepers were especially warm, friendly and inviting.

Our stay in Mendocino was made even better by staying at the Joshua Grindel bed and breakfast. Breakfast was delicious! Scones, banana bread, homemade granola, and more. We ate our breakfast on the porch. The grounds are delightful, filled with flowers.

We stayed at the inn for 2 nights and everything was great. Lexi helped us with everything starting from check-in. She is a thorough professional with a warm personality and knowledge about the area. The property is at an easy walkable distance from the town and beach. The room we got was nice: Spacious, clean, and with a good bathroom. We loved our stay at Joshua Grindle Inn and we would definitely go back to lovely Mendocino and would staty at the same place.

Great stay at the Inn
The inn is immaculate, charming, quiet, and beautiful! It’s walking distance to everything in town, including the grocery store. There’s a shared fridge and microwave available to use on site, but there are no utensils, bowls, etc., so you’d have to bring your own. The owners are lovely and so helpful. And Jemma the sweet little cat likes to hang out and is slowly beginning to warm up to guests. Oh, and breakfast is yummy! It’s the perfect place to stay during your trip to Mendocino! WiFi works great too!
