This is a hidden gem in Old Town. Much better than staying in a chain and much more comfortable. The room was perfect and we had several options to walk to dining. We will definitely be back to stay here.

Was very happy with our stay. Super quiet place and very comfy. Free parking was awesome and a 15 min walk to tons of restaurants. The room was very clean. My only little nit pick was the pillows were a little thin. The Girlfriend and I plan on coming back again next year!

Cute bed and breakfast, you’re essentially renting a bedroom & bathroom. Very clean and pretty, easy to find and good parking. Jose was quick to respond to any questions and let us in. We didn’t use public transportation this trip but you are pretty close to the train. It was nice to have the fridge stocked with waters and things that you have access to 24/7 especially after coming home from a late night out. Definitely would stay there again, I don’t think it would be good for kids bc the rooms are smaller and it’s very quiet (good for us). Obviously a house so no gym or restaurant on site lol continental breakfast and coffee were good to take the edge off in the morning before going out to a later brunch
