Beautiful homey inn. Room was accessible off courtyard which had cats! Sadly didn’t have time for the hot tub. Within a block of grocery store and cafe which we received a breakfast voucher for and was amazing.

The room we stayed in was very nicely decorated and had everything we needed. It was obvious that a lot of thought was put into it. Nice place to stay in lieu of a hotel.

A great night's sleep in old-world stylish comfort. We loved it here; little touches, like bottles of cold water in the fridge on arrival, go a long way.
