Everything was perfect! Very quaint and comfortable and the location was perfect to be able to visit the canyon. We even arrived late and they were very understanding and accommodating with our check-in. The breakfast was wonderful with homemade bread and the restaurant is super cute.

The room was far from the parking lot and a bit small for four adults. The breakfast restaurant felt crowded compared to the number of guests. The staff was very friendly.
