"We needed to book a hotel in the area somewhat urgently in order to deal with a family emergency. The staff could not have been more helpful and gracious. From perfect accommodations to wonderful food and generous help, we had everything we needed in order to make an uncomfortable situation an extremely pleasant experience. We are looking forward to staying here again, and we will no doubt enjoy the incredible bath products, fluffy robes, excellent staff, delicious food, and great location. "

"Host double booked on VRBO and other major house sharing platform. I had booked 2 months in advance (and paid) but got notice 3 hours before checking in ( was in a plane heading there) that “sorry” but could not take me that they would honor a cancellation like they were doing me a favor.
