Natalie was incredibly welcoming, accommodating, and very knowledgeable about the surrounding area, providing excellent recommendations and local information.

We stayed here for 8 days and are very positive about our experience. For the UK (we are Brits visiting from the US) the room size and amenities were significantly above average for the price, the food from the restaurant Cerise was never less than excellent and the staff were warm, friendly and welcoming and whenever there was a small problem they went out of there way to make sure things were resolved. Location is a big plus, the hotel being in a quiet location but only 2 - 3 minutes walk from...

Early one morning, as he was leaving after working the night shift, we asked him how to get to a particular location in town.
