Super clean and adorable. Some shops and food in walking distance. My only complaint is that the wifi was really bad and it made it almost impossible to do work calls.

We stayed in one of the family suites with the double bunk beds! We loved it for our family... everyone had their own full sized bed. And the kids loved the pool. Also, it was a short walk to Old Town.

Love Miss Olivia and the rest of the staff. The little bar lobby area is really cute. Everything was very clean and nice but our TV was very very dark. We couldn't watch it. Other than that it was awesome. Right around the corner from Old Town walkable cute neighborhood, shopping, restaurants & festivities.

We stayed here two different nights during our recent vacation. Our first room was absolutely great. On our second stay we had a different room and had more issues with the cleanliness of the room, disrepair of the shower, curtains were not clean, walls had many smudges and a foul order from the sink. We will stay again because the first night was great. They have a small lounge with live music and a bar which we really really enjoyed.

Last minute booking during a roadtrip and very happy I did. The gentleman who handled check-in at the time was super helpful and accommodating (note for anyone with cooler, my fridge did NOT have a freezer section at top, like many of the small ones have. Unsure if all rooms are same when it comes to that, just mentioning.) The room was very comfy and clean and had a modern flair, while also staying cozy. Great space.
