The room was spacious and well decorated, the bed comfortable. The pool was small and had little sun, due to the location in the courtyard. The diner was great, delicious breakfast.

The beds were comfortable, the hot water was FIRE, the location was perfect and the diner in the lobby was convenient and delicious. Valeting our car was mildly annoying but at least I didn't have to park in a tiny space or stress about finding a spot. I would stay here again for sure!
