"Great location and excellent staff."

Overall Score4.0/ 5

Easy walking to everything. Gorgeous views from restaurant, pool and lobby, very pretty, breezy and nice to hang out. Hotel parking was a big plus. Interior and room was definitely more “vintage” than fancy, as the price reflects. I enjoyed my stay very much and would go back.
