At check in and check-out they were very friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. There were enough towels for all 4 of us and a great shower.

Beautiful hotel. The only downsides (if you can even call them that) is a small tv in the room and lacking in the working power outlet department but we loved our stay and would stay again!
Beautiful view from our room!

Jason, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfy bed and very clean!

Beautiful town, comfortable bed (pillows suck) and the room is very clean. Awesome rain head shower with lots of hot water. Staff was super nice and check in went smoothly. Breakfast is the usual but they had fresh yogurt and fruit which was nice. It’s a little worn looking in spots and the walls are pretty thin but overall will stay again when traveling through.

Perfect location close to W&L, charming hotel with original details, and delicious dinner at The Juniper Cafe. Great service and our waitress was wonderful. I only wish it had been warm enough to eat outside in the lovely balcony!
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a cute retro hotel. Very well-maintained but it would have been nice to have a larger TV and the breakfast was not that impressive. Overall, nice location and comfortable and quiet.
