Cute, clean and cozy hotel
Cute, clean and cozy hotel. It has a fun, young vibe and the location cannot be beat. Close to all the shops, restaurants and amenities you would need. They have wine and cheese hour, fruit cart Fridays and a lovely garden patio area with coffee in the morning.

FALSE ADVERTISING
It doesn’t say this anywhere on the listing, but this is a motel-style property! The restaurant is closed, the phone and thermostat didn’t work, and there were 2 rats inside the elevator. I didn’t feel safe and immediately checked out but management refused to make an exception to their cancellation policy and charged me for the stay.

Great small hotel across from the Farmers Market
This hotel has been updated very nicely. The staff really aim to please. I came a bit early for check in & they let me use their conference room to have a zoom meeting! They have great furnishings & lots of art books in the rooms.

Great Boutique Hotel
We absolutely loved this hotel. The decor was so nice and you can't beat the location. The only negative thing was the restaurant. We had 2 drink tickets (for wine) and ordered 1 drink and it took 20 minutes. We are both servers and bartenders and were quite disappointed with the length of service. We were 15 minutes late for our dinner reservation as a result and the place wasn't that busy.
