    Wonderful

    We would certainly stay here again and would recommend the Inn to our friends.

    Pros: The Inn felt very clean. I appreciated the attention the maid service provided. Free parking was a major bonus. Staff was friendly and helpful.Thank you for the California champagne and bottled water in the refrigerator.

    Poor

    B A D

    Cons: The smell in the room was terrible, maybe it is the old school carpeted floors? X__X The amount of money they charge for what it actually is, its pretty bad. The coffee at breakfast and wine at happy hour absolutely terrible. No, I would not stay here again.

  • Hotel review by Zeynep

    Zeynep

    Exceptional

    Wonderful ambiance

    Pros: Very peaceful place with the beautiful garden, complimentary wine happy hour, small fountains, fireplace on chilly mornings and the kind, helpful staff. I got a queen room and it was very comfortable for me as a solo traveler. The room has a fridge, a coffee machine, and a microwave, which were really convenient for me. The housekeeping upon request works totally fine with me. They work really well as well. The assistants at the front desk are helpful and attentive. Many thanks to them. Many of the hotels here dont provide breakfast so I am glad that breakfast is available. Overall, I loved it. Hoping to come back.
    Cons: The only thing could be the cold hard boiled egg at breakfast. Id rather have warm/hot scrambled eggs but it is still not much of a big deal.
