"GREAT location. The stairs to the Embarcadero are across the street next to Dorn’s- good breaky. Easy walk into the main town shops, as well. The property is very well maintained. The room was a little smaller than expected but it served our needs and had a modern, remodeled bathroom, which was lovely. There was a portable air unit that wasn’t to be used with a sign on it in the room, though they had mounted AC that worked very well. We also had an electric fireplace in the room but we tried it...
"What a truly AMAZING little place! The staff was so kind and helpful, the rooms are beautiful with super comfy beds, and the balcony and fireplace add just the right vibe. Stellar property! Just BEAUTIFUL! I highly recommend staying here if given the opportunity."
