    The room was very spacious and had just the view we were looking for. We were allowed early check-in and really appreciated the late check out time of noon. Clean and comfortable. Room included a mini fridge which we took advantage of. Appreciated...

    Upgraded room, it was so clean and spacious! Loved the morning views. Bed was very comfy. Location in old town was ideal, especially to the historical sites of interest. They let us have late checkout which was a nice touch to our weekend getaway.
