We loved our stay here! Sabijn was fantastic- she upgraded our room to the coach house which was beautiful and spacious! Super comfortable bed and nice linens. The venue is very modern, charming and clean. Coffee maker and cold creamer and bottles of water in the fridge. Our room had beautiful floor to ceiling windows and a cute little patio to enjoy a glass of wine and morning coffee with periodic visits from an adorable neighborhood cat. Nice little sitting area inside as well. The location couldn’t be better- easy parking and short walk to restaurants and water front. We had a great breakfast at the Cozy Cafe just up the street. Highly recommend and hope to be back again someday!
