6 reviews for Russian River Studios
Stayed here over Labor Day weekend, because of the positive Yelp reviews and the low price (for the neighborhood). I was not disappointed. The hotel is a row of studio apartments. They're not new construction or particularly "high end" but they're clean and very cute. The proprietors clearly put a lot of care into the place. I think the room I stayed in looked appreciably better in person than it did in the pictures on the motel's web site.
The hotel is set back only a little from the town's main street, but traffic noise was never a problem, and the blackout drapes mentioned in other reviews were great. I'd certainly stay here again if I was in the area.
This past weekend was my first time in Guerneville. I was starting to regret it as we were driving down the 101. I saw a lot of cows, grass -- it reminded me of "Little House on the Prairie." I'm a city girl - I cry and get depressed when I see cows and hear mooing. I started to panic - what if the place I was going to stay was going to be like "Little House on the Prairie?" Do they have electricity? Do I have to get water from a well!? Is there a toilet...?
RRS was the perfect getaway from the city. It was clean, modern and simply wonderful. Studios are $69/night (with tax, off season) and $129 (with tax, regular).
Why I didn't have to worry:
Plenty of parking in the front.
Fast and free wi-fi.
Kitchen with refrigerator, utensils, glasses, etc.
Windows - one in kitchen, bathroom and one that overlooks River Rd.
Close proximity to restaurants, shopping, pubs.
Stumptown Brewery right across the street.
Beach towels and toiletries provided.
Cute little t.v. with cable.
Little garden outside with chairs - perfect for lounging.
Little pool with lots of lounge chairs for sunbathing.
Cute art gallery in the office area.
Very comfortable room with heater and fan.
Great service. I requested an early check-in (before 3 p.m.) and they totally accommodated me.
I wish I owned a studio here. This place is great. The drive from S.F. to here was fun - especially speeding down Old River Road and passing all the wineries!!
I have stayed at Russian River Studios 4 times in the past few years and keep going back! It's clean, comfortable and very affordable. And I like the little kitchenette. The owners are friendly and accommodating. Can't wait for my next 4 visits! :)
Great winter rate ($75 after tax) and no non-sense, clean, basic room with kitchen. Friendly owners. Perfect free wi-fi signals. Close to State Park & town (Armstrong Redwoods, Pat's Resturant, Hemp & Chocolat). Great to support a local business.
I received a response to my comment about the outside lights coming in, from the owners. They have installed room darkening shades in the rooms. That is caring customer service, and shows that the owners really care about making your stay enjoyable. If we ever head to the area again, we'll definately stay here again.

What a bargain. I'm glad we booked a room here. I read a few reviews on trip advisor, and wasn't… Read more »
I love this place. We have been there many times and I will go back any time. The rooms, location, the owners, the rates, the proximity to the Russian River, to the downtown area... it's all great. They have now also added an Art Gallery called Car Port right under the studios. Excellent idea. We highly recommend this place, especially if you like cooking your own food, the little kitchen in each studio is well equipped. But you're also near other restaurants and Cafes and evena small health food store.
