Very cute hotel with friendly staff and a perfect location. Only critique is that the rooms aren’t very well insulated for sound, so you may want to bring your earplugs especially if you like to sleep in. Great breakfast. Free parking. Very nice high end bath products.

We would stay here again in a heartbeat! Everything about the property is so thoughtful and absolutely darling. It was perfect for our first anniversary. And the staff was WONDERFUL—incredibly kind, gracious, and ready to do anything they could to make our stay better. Great location too. Would absolutely come back and will be looking for other Pali Society properties going forward.

Bathroom issues

It was very well decorated. I liked all the little details. Our bathroom was a problem and i raised concern although nothing happened. The sink makes a very loud like engine noise every time we turned it on. Something with plumbing. It was scary using it in the middle of the night. The shower was seemingly clogged or something—two minutes in the shower and you’re standing in a bath. It overflowed into the outside of the shower and soaked through the towels. Very bad setup. It was slippery and uncomfortable every time we tried to shower.
