Quick check in with a nice large room. Pool, hot tub and a great view. Complementary coffee/tea with croissants was nice as well. Only issue is the wifi was really poor in our room, so couldn't use the smart tv without a hot spot.

First timers at Contenta Inn

We weren't sure what to expect as we were not familiar with the area or Inn, but from the minute we went to the lobby to ask if we could store our luggage since it was too early to check in, the front desk clerk was so welcoming, warm and so nice ! The room and entire retro vibe of the Inn is very cool, clean and modern !
