This place was our favorite hotel on our 8 day trip. The room was excellent, the bathroom was spacious and had a heated towel rack. The included breakfast let you choose anything on the breakfast menu across the street at their restaurant. The bakery items were delicious. Everyone was kind, friendly and helpful. It was an amazing experience.

We arrived a little later than expected, but a lovely staff member from the cafe checked us in, the room was warm and inviting with little chocolate cakes as a welcome gift. Super comfy bed, clean room and a great shower too. The breakfast was in the cafe accross the street and was delicious. On the Wed night, we ate in the pizzeria next door, this was fantastic food too. Overall a lovely experience and we would highly recommend to others.

Great Breakfast and super clean room.
When i realized I was going to be late I contacted the owner/manager and he arranged for my key to be left at the bar right beside the hotel. One of the workers got the keys and took me to my room. OMG! The breakfast across the street was AMAZING!!! The shower was a little tight, but the room was immaculate. I was so impressed. I honestly can't think of anything that would need improved. The only negative I can think is that I had to park behind the lodge and it was a little tight getting back there, and out the next morning, but I didn't have to worry about my car being disturbed while I was there. (The car would have been fine on the street too) ALWAYS take advantage of that breakfast though!

We really enjoyed the uniqueness of the place. Extremely clean and spacious rooms. Breakfast next door in the lodge was wonderful. Least favorite thing was being stuck to certain check in times, but those were available to be rearranged if needed, so not an issue for us. Ample parking as well.
