"The owners checked us in and were extremely helpful with dining options. The room was nice. Ours was small but comfortable, although the furniture was a bit dated. Be sure to bring your wine glasses if you drink the local wines as they are not provided in the kitchen or room. The kitchen is shared with other clients. If you need to store refrigerator items the kitchen refrigerator is bigger than your room. and the freezer is large as well. This was handy. Housekeeping is not daily, but I’m sure the managers are happy to oblige if you need clean towels, etc. The shower was terrific and the bathroom looked newly renovated and was lovely.
