The hotel was an oasis or serenity in the busy historic district. The manager Cesar and the staff were true hospitality professionals. They all practiced a credo of service that strives to go above and beyond the expectations of the guest. Not a detail was overlooked! Congratulations to all of the staff and the management for their excellence in their operations. They truly made us feel at home.
