Wonderful and unique boutique!

Wonderful and unique boutique! Historic house turned into a very classy and quiet hotel. Just a block or two from the action. We had a cool loft room with a big bed for my wife and I and a loft bed for our son. Service and staff were friendly and accommodating. (The photo is the view from our room ❤️)

This property was a beautiful boutique hotel with impeccable service. There were a few lounge areas that were comfortable and full of interesting art and sculptures. It was in a quieter neighborhood but we enjoyed that. Also has a beautiful back patio on the canal!

What can I say? Hands down the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Pasqale, Fredrick and Arnaud are the warmest, kindest most considerate hosts. Every detail has been thought of.
