The Hotel with 16 rooms is very “cozy” and the design of the room reminded us of a stay at the Le Chateau Frontenac. If I had to critique at all, it was the late night music. For a Classy pHotel / Restaurant & Bar more suited for Buble, Sinatra & Connick, Jr, we instead got Beyoncé on a continuous loop! Change the music and place would be 100%.

I really liked the art Deco motif, it was like stepping back in time. The two gals that I encountered Megan and Liz we're both kind and considerate, I found them to be very professional in their jobs. Both, had great personalities and we're very kind to a weary traveler. Only problem I had, was in finding the place, Google maps failed me.

Very clean and friendly people. Don’t understand why you would have to pay them to park your vehicle in their parking lot. Other than that it was great.
