Guest Ratings & Reviews
I stayed at this hotel and it was a great experience! The rooms were always kept clean, and it was nice to have a little chair out on the porch. The location was perfect, in a quiet area yet also close to downtown. The dining was nice with included nachos, and the facilities were top-notch. The service was excellent, making my stay very enjoyable.
The hotel is located in a quiet area close to many attractions and just a few blocks away from a bakery, making it very convenient. The rooms, with a little chair out on the porch, were always kept clean, adding to the overall comfortable stay. The service was top-notch and the price offered great value for the experience.
The hotel is situated in a lovely quiet area, very close to Downtown and within reach of numerous attractions. The rooms are always kept clean, and there's a charming little chair out on the porch. Despite the great location, the service was disappointing, lacking attentiveness and warmth. The dining options were limited but included cooked eggs, which was a nice touch. Overall, the hotel offers good value for the money.
