Reviews and Ratings
I had a great time staying at this hotel. The rooms were small but clean, and I found them very comfortable. The service was outstanding, from the doorman Jeff to the desk staff and everyone working there. The location was perfect, just a block from King Street shopping and the straw market. The dining experience was okay, but I was a bit disappointed with the limited options. Overall, a pleasant stay with friendly staff and a convenient location.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-good aspects. The rooms, while small, had a quaint charm to them, and having a garage connected to the hotel was convenient, even if the $20 daily fee was a downside. Being on the 2nd floor meant being above a wedding celebration, which added a unique touch to the experience. I believe the room rate was only acceptable because it's a 5-star hotel; otherwise, it might have fallen short. However, the location across the hall from room 306 was convenient for me.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very large and perfect for our needs, but they could use refreshing. The decor and outdoor pool area were nice, along with the restaurant and indoor areas, all for under $150.
