I just love this place! We’ve stayed several times for girls’ trips and my daughter just celebrated her 20th birthday party here with friends. There is a substantial enough kitchen to cook in, the entire facility including the rooms are all thoughtfully and distinctly decorated. It almost feels like you are staying at a friend’s house (who has impeccable taste) with all the conveniences of a hotel. Every is immaculately cleaned, and pet friendly!!!! You receive a welcome drink when you check in, there is a coffee/wine bar on the premises, a cute pool and lounge area outside, and even a library. This is the perfect boutique hotel at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend!

The hotel is beautiful. We had a room with three bedrooms and it was perfect for a group of 6 and we could hang out in the living room. The pool is smaller but still very nice the chairs and all the amenities were very nice. It is located about a mile from all the shopping on South Congress. So not super close but was fine for a morning walk for coffee but evening time I would suggest taking an uber instead of walking.

Everything about the hotel and my stay was great. The staff were helpful and the room was clean and tidy. We felt welcomed and enjoyed the coffee shop on the first floor every single morning. The only issue was the mattress in our room was pretty uncomfortable. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Stayed here for one night and it was very comfortable and clean. Not as close to downtown shops and restaurants as I was hoping for, but if you’re good with walking 10-15 mins to everything, then the hotel is perfect. Staff was nice. Love the way the room and hotel was decorated. I would stay again!
