Vintage Stay with Great Amenities

convenient locationspacious roomvery nice staffdelicious food
The location was very convenient to the airport. It was approximately a 15-minute drive. The room was spacious, providing ample space to relax. I had dinner at the restaurant. The staff was very nice. The food was also delicious. Both exceeded my expectations.
The light fixture next to the bed was loose. It seemed to hang off slightly.

Vintage Charm and Really good Service

I found the staff cute. They were attentive to every need. The room included a nice selection of teas and coffee. I also had dinner at the restaurant. Every dish displayed culinary care and amazing flavors.
The check-in area was somewhat chaotic upon my arrival. This was possibly due to being understaffed.

I had a nice family room. There was a very convenient parking space at the back of the building. The bathroom was also nice. I found it convenient to have everything in close proximity.
I did notice some abrupt interactions with the staff, particularly upon arrival. The welcome was underwhelming. I also felt that my breakfast, a slice of avocado on toast, was overpriced. This was not ideal.
