Questionable suds and irresponsible splatter
Nice place and good location but the parking is extra money, narrow and sketchy. If you order room service you need to go get it yourself from downstairs. The jacuzzi spa had some questionable suds and what looked like an irresponsible splatter near it as well that was unsightly. After spending some time there, we noticed there was a lingering mildew smell on our swimwear and skin as well. So mixed stay.

Curtains
The room I stayed in 720 the curtains do not shut all the way so you wake up with the sun hitting your face if you are sleeping on the bed next to the balcony. Booked for 4 people but towels left for 2.

Balcony, hot pool and breakfast advantage hotel.
The view from balcony room and breakfast are amazing. Also the hot pool is relaxing but our stay is too short. Wish the beds are queen sizes. But everything is clean. And balcony and hot pool are the main thing I chose the hotel. Breakfast availability is also another winner.

Bed was comfortable. Location was awesome, and staff was very friendly. But parking was a challenge, and some amenities did not work (i.e. mini-fridge, tv remote)

Weekend getaway
Check in was easy and we were greeted with some delicious cookies our stay was extremely satisfactory as the workers were very helpful and gave us what we needed with speed and accuracy. The pool area was a big favorite as it was clean and available for us to enjoy even in November. Had trouble connecting to Wi-Fi but other than that it was a really pleasant stay oh and parking was free

Decent stay, great location!
The hotel was easy to find w friendly staff. The bed was comfy, but we noticed there were no screen on any windows/doors. We got a room w a balcony- but couldn’t leave the door open because there wasn’t any screen for it. Things like that & a little extra updating of some door panels & floor boards, would really improve its presentation. That said, it was 1 block from the heart if little Italy/ it was great to walk to dinner & farmers market.
Their complimentary cookies were terrific!
We would definitely stay there again.
