Very cute place. The rooms were nice, beds were comfortable, & I loved having my own private balcony. Property also has a little outdoor area where you can get a pint of beer, chill at the fire pits, play ping pong and other games, and listen to live music. Location was perfect, everything within walking distance

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location is great and love the amenities, the only downside for us was no elevator for accessibility. The only accessible rooms are on the ground floor, and they only have 1 king bed which wouldn’t work for our family. I wish the property would invest in elevators so our family can stay there again in the future without needing to book two rooms.
