For the price through Expedia this was a decent place to stay. The staff were friendly. The cold breakfast brought to our room was a nice touch since there is no restaurant on site. I liked the zen feel of the fountain at night. It just all seems a bit dated and could use a facelift.

Cute hotel. Beautiful garden courtyard area, breakfast delivery to your room, easy to park and in a good location. Texting with staff for questions etc was also a great option for quick easy questions. Spacious rooms with a fireplace and jetted tub. Furnishings and carpet feel a bit dated but character of the place made up for it.
