We had a member of our party with an accidental fall and the staff were very helpful with what they had of a first aid kit and ice. Parking is nearly impossible in the area but otherwise it is a quaint area that feels lovely and very safe.

2/10 Poor

Don’t book!!!!

Horrible. Not what I thought. Should have looked better at the pictures but they were misleading. The entire hotel was filthy. And the room…even worse. Gross, filthy, made my skin crawl. There was a greasy handprint above the bed and the chairs were ripped. I didn’t stay. I left!
