Love this property! It is older which is part of the ambiance. Private entrance, clean rooms and all of the amenities you could ask for. Bed was super comfortable and everything was clean. Voucher for breakfast at a cute cafe less than a block away. We will definitely stay here again!

I absolutely loved the location and amenities, but the breakfast was definitely over advertised. The property had many comments on an “incredible” breakfast. But for two people, we were only given an 18$ voucher which was only enough to get two full entrees at the neighboring cafe, no drinks, coffee, no baked good. To be fair the cafe was lovely, delicious, and very fairly priced. But a little crazy we couldn’t even afford a drink with breakfast with the voucher. Then the Sunday breakfast that is advertised as room service, was delivered the night before, a bagel, a mini muffin, some yogurt and fruit. All carbs no protein, fiber or veggie was offered. Along with no nutritional or ingredients were provided even after I mentioned there was a tree nut allergy in the room and the response was we can’t guarantee nut free. Overall I wanted to love this small, adorable accommodations but was very frustrated by the “amazing” breakfast that was misadvertised.
