Decor, facilities and the check in process was excellent. Bathroom was too small for my liking. Can’t give an assessment on the staff as I never met them. Calls into question the focus of some aspects of the questionnaire if the only contact was a remote online process.

This was a nice place, but the room was really small. Since the food options on sunday night and monday were really limited I had to get things at the grocery store. No fridge or suitable place to eat. Put my milk on the windowsill, and it fell off! I had a much better experience in their other property. Regardless, the owner snd staff were helpful.
