This is a hotel that really knows and cares for its guests, whether they stay or a day or two or stay for weeks or months. The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, personal, and unique, the food is excellent, and the coffee is good and hot. Staying there felt like a treat.

Staff indifferent to my noise and service complaints. As a guest the bar/restaurant should not be closed to me because of a “private event”. I have stayed here several times over the years but not any more.
