Loved everything but we had very noisy neighbors!! Walls are way too thin, you can hear everything….

A very nice locally owned hotel. We ate at the bar which was comfortable. It has a gorgeous courtyard to enjoy the outdoors. A welcome change from the cookie cutter of a chain stay.

Wish the bar and dining areas were open earlier than 5 pm. But food and drinks were excellent. A microwave in the room would be conveniant.

Inside the hotel, the facilities were very nice: attractive lobby, airy dining room with a view to their courtyard, spacious guest rooms with plenty of bathroom counter space. One night (of three) there was a party in the room next door. After a couple of midnight visits to the front desk (because they took the phones out of the rooms), they moved us to another room. The included breakfast I would give a 'C': Cheddar omelettes, hash browns, and sausage were the hot choices. Not bad, until the third day in a row. But the server was great, in constant motion, and friendly but not overly so.
