This hotel met our expectations in every way. All information about its boutique-style and charm were completely earned. From the team room and its outstanding food to the beautiful bathtub in our room to the excellent and friendly staff, you really can’t go wrong with this hotel! This hotel also excelled for the little things: fresh locally sourced ingredients, fresh milk in the room, tea service/Nespresso machine in the room, highest quality towels, bathrobes and slippers and turn down service each night with chocolates! I really cannot think of a detail that they missed in making our stay super enjoyable!
