"Such a cute spot, staff was friendly and helpful. They have a pretty good happy hour wine and snacks. Breakfast looks really good but we got up too early to make it each morning since it's served at 8am. About 1.5 miles from downtown. We would definitely stay here again. "

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful property! This was my first time here. The only problems were: 1) There was no coffee available in the morning until you were seated. Most hotels I have been to have a coffee station. We were told the person at the front desk could give us a cup of coffee but it would be only black coffee. 2) There was only 1 waiter during breakfast time on Monday morning, so the service was very slow.
