"Beautiful hotel. Amazing helpful staff and excellent breakfast. The only thing I was unhappy with is there are no black out drapes or way to block the early sun so I would wake very early. I can’t sleep unless it’s dark. Otherwise it’s a beautiful hotel."
"Absolutely AMAZING!! This hotel was super cute, luxurious and comfortable. The staff were incredibly sweet and we loved every part of our stay. The cocktails at the bar, the supportive staff, atmosphere and breakfast. Incredible. Thank you so very much for having us, looking forward to coming again :)"
