Unique and stylish hotel near Farmer’s Market. The patio is lovely, the rooms nicely decorated, even though for four people a little bit on the small side. The pool has good depth, but is also on the smaller side. The staff is absolutely lovely and accomodating.

As always a great place to stay. Welcomed us with Prosecco and juice. Love that it's right across from The Grove and the Farmer's Market which provide plenty of dining options, which means it doesn't matter than the onsite options are limited. However this also meant we could use the Expedia amenity as we were only around one night and didn't eat at the restaurant. Very walkable and safe area. We walked 20 minutes to Bacio di Latte and felt fine doing so. Lots of upscale dining nearby as well. Rooms are very cute with a seating area and lots of books. A ton of personality here.

I liked the quiet and comfortable inner outdoor courtyard and the daily available coffee. Room was ample and somewhat basic, but comfortable with a large screen TV and couch and table, in a junior suite in the south building. The AC was adequate but disturbing as it switched on and off. Terrific location right next to the Grove - ideal location for everything I wanted, though would have to leave the property for breakfast. Helpful and friendly staff.

Excellent staff, they’re all very friendly and helpful. Room was good, some minor plumbing issues but nothing substantially major to cause any problems during my stay. Bed is on the harder side if that’s something you’re interested in or concerned about. Overall, a convenient and comfortable stay for a week.
