"Our room was very clean! The bed was excellent! Had in room coffee + microwave oven & a larger than standard refrigerator. The only glitch was on day two the tv was stuck on one channel. The staff couldnโ€™t have been more helpful! However, it was discovered it was a nation wide issue with Direct TV ! Not their fault. As for the breakfast, it consisted of coffee both regular and decaf + baked goodies from a local bakery, very good! + instant oatmeal. The location is very convenient right in the middle of town. You can walk anywhere! All in all a very nice pleasant stay and the price was well worth it! Just a note, the front office staff was outstanding, pleasant and helpful. 5 stars for sure๐Ÿ‘"

"Really enjoyed the cottage. It had a nice kitchen and all the plates, cookware you would need. Very friendly and helpful staff. A picky item but Netflix (or an option to use your account) on the tv would be a good addition. After a day of wine tastings it would be good to watch a something other than the local or sports channels."
