Staff was amazing. The place was lovely outside out quiet hours and nestled in between shops and restaurants. Beautiful location. Wednesdays market was set up right it front. Parking is a little hard to come by but do able. Read the signs before parking.

Would recommend a stay here. My husband and I stayed in a queen room with private bath. It is noisy but we went there knowing that would be and just turned on the provided fan. Very clean room and cooled nicely with central air.
