Overall the hotel was great. The barn door style for the bathroom was not very private for our family. And the restaurant was closed during our stay, though we were not aware that would be the case. Great to have a quiet oasis with personality.

Cute little boutique hotel in a great location, just opposite the Grove / Farmer's Market. The hotel is kept spotless, the staff were friendly and the room was clean with a comfortable bed, seating area and modern bathroom. Free tea / coffee in the mornings and free fresh lemon / fruit water throughout the day. Very safe and happy as a solo traveler. I would 10/10 stay here again.
