Great location, and the room was a good size. The rooftop pool is perfect for cooling off on a hot summer day, but it’s quite shallow, so don’t expect to swim laps. The staff were friendly, and both check-in and check-out were quick and hassle-free.

My husband (68) and I (58) stayed for five nights, and were very pleased all the while. Great breakfast, helpful staff - very clean and fresh room. We loved the attitude; respect for all, be kind, take care of the planet. This concept is great. Also, the location was perfect. Thank you for a great stay!
