Great hotel awesome front desk. We had a great room great parking although we did not move and just used ride share I would highly recommend this small hotel
A timeless classic hotel feel as if we were in Tuscany Italy. Very close, great view of the pier, rooms were clean and comfortable! We never moved our vehicle once we parked, everything we wanted to see/do were within walking distance.
Beautiful residency we lived out stay will definitely visit again

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
We really enjoyed the hotel. It is like a visit to Grandma's house with all of the antiques and decor. The room was very spacious and the the location is 10/10
The property was beautiful, staff was amazing, however I wasn’t too happy that I got charged each night for property tax and 2 security deposits instead of being only charged for one.
Over all I’d stay there again
