A little surprised there's no housekeeping service but front desk was so accomodating. Each night a wedding was going on and the band was so loud it felt like we were there. It did stop around 11. I would reccomend this hotel for the location alone. Can't beat it. Wine and cheese was very nice too.

It was a great hotel. The only complaint was no room service. Maybe you had to request it. The staff was great and very helpful recommending things to do. Will stay there again.

The Elliott House was very picturesque, the room was comfortable and the inner courtyard was beautiful. Wine and cheese there in the evenings. Restaurants and shops all around; we never had to get the car out of parking. That said, the walls were thin, there was no in-room coffee machine (only available in the courtyard every morning for one hour) and no daily room cleaning. Also no staff on site after 10 p.m. Not sure we'll stay there again with so many other choices nearby.
