The room was clean and very cozy. It’s small but I loved it. Nick is the manager and I only met him but he was super nice and accommodating. He also makes an exquisite breakfast made to order every morning! There is also an evening reception every night with wine, beer and charcuterie. The location can’t be beat as well!!
