Great but VERY small

The hotel is really lovely and the people were so helpful and kind. However - I don't mind a small space but the room was ridiculously small. My husband and I are smaller people and could not imagine anyone larger being able to function in that size space. The attention to ecotourism was fantastic! VERY clean which is my top priority. And short walks to all we wanted to do so location was great.

Small little details; they did not clean the shower and the bed was very soft. Coffee was very nice the first nights for the next morning; but the last night they forgot all about it!

A very stylish small hotel with wonderful amenities. However, our King room was tiny, with a very, very small bathroom. It reminded me of the miniscule room we had in Paris. Also, half the room was very cold and half was fine, so clearly an inadequate hvac system. The staff was professional and accommodating.

Everything was fine, great location, staff was friendly and efficient, room was clean. Only a three star rating because the room and bathroom were uncomfortably small - maybe the smallest hotel room I’ve ever stayed in and I’ve stayed in hundreds. Probably will not be back here again unless I discuss an advance what the size of my room will be.

An uncomfortable stay

The room was freezing so it was very uncomfortable. Other guests I asked experienced the same issue so it wasn't an isolated problem. I wouldn't stay here again. The rooms were very small and a bit shabby, and the place smelled musty. Most of the staff was friendly though.
