Room was extremely small and bathroom was terrible. After first night we requested a different room. Staff was very accommodating and we gladly paid for the upgrade to a little larger room with a decent bathroom and better WI-FI signal. The beds are very firm

Quaint, Good Breakfast
Staff were helpful, owners served breakfast each morning, which was AMAZING! I stayed on the second floor, room #5. Hotel was quiet because all the guests (except 1) made an effort to be quiet and respectful (walls are thin). It was a basic hotel, cute balconies, bathroom light didn’t always work and the bed was hard as a rock but otherwise I liked the place and would recommend.
