"Beautifully decorated with great in room amenities. We really appreciated the local cheese, meats, and other food items. everything was very clean and well thought out with an extremely comfortable bed and high quality linens. Our only issue is we could hear the floors creaking often and loudly from the room next-door. And with the wall being in common with bed headboard, it made for a noisy night until around midnight when the neighbor settled down. Good location with ample free street parking....
