The staff was nice, the room was clean though not in the best condition - there was no towel holder... you could see where it used to be but it was just missing. The ceiling had some spots where it was patched or repaired and just not blended well. Get the top floor if you can. While the room above me seemed to go to bed around the same time as me, I could hear every footstep. And it sounded like two kids were having races from the balcony to the front door. The view is amazing as the building is up a winding road. I would stay here again if I can get the top floor. For the price, it was one unit of hotel.

The view was nice, probably one of the better views that I've ever had from a hotel. Breakfast options was below average. No eggs, biscuits, sausage, or bacon. We had leftovers from a cafe nearby so I went down to get two cups of orange juice, which turned out really sour. Hotel room was clean, but the beds where really hard & the pillows went flat laying on them. Staff was nice though.

The room was clean and updated and the view was very nice with a balcony and rocking chairs. check in was easy. It was not very restful as the room above use must have been playing tennis in the room half the night. was told at check in that breakfast started at 6:30 but at 7:00 and 7:15 the breakfast area was closed and dark. We had to go out and buy food and when we returned the breakfast area was then open. Told them about it at check out but did not offer any discount. Was over priced for what it was

Very clean room. Basic accommodations but the view was amazing on the balcony. All rooms face a gorgeous mountain view and have rockers on the balcony. No elevator, so keep that in mind if stairs are a challenge.

It was nice, clean, quiet and conveniently located. Owners were nice and helpful. The hilltop location provided a great view for all rooms. (The steep driveway could be challenging for extra large vehicles, though.) Breakfast was very basic. Bananas were the only fruit offered. We would gladly book here again.
