The property was modern, quiet and well kept. Their staff was beyond kind and helpful (no fork delivered with your food via uber eats? No problem - they came to my rescue). Weekend brunch was lovely, and loved having someone at the front desk at all hours.

It was absolutely beautiful, confortable and fresh. I loved the library and the swimming pool. There is not an included valet parking so you would need to be lucky to find a spot in the block or pay for a parking lot 1 block away (there is a discount for Hotel guests)

It’s a very nice hotel, highly recommended. That said, two comments: sone of the floor tiles were completely loose. I cut my toe on one. Some of the tiles on the bathroom floor were shattered, and all were heavily stained. The management needs to replace them all. Second, the hotel has an amazing library, and excellent spaces to sit outside your room and work on a laptop. The location is excellent.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Like the location. The owners have spent a great deal of money on the areas surrounding the rooms, but the bathrooms have been neglected. The lavatory in our room could not be used without washing down the counter and floor. The sinks are far too small and the faucet too large and oddly hangs over most of the sink. Hot water and water pressure were poor.

Lovely property, needs some upkeep

The property design is truly beautiful but some maintenance issues are of concern. Many tiles in the pool are missing or broken, several lanterns in the courtyard tree are burned out, and we had a leak in our bathroom sink. There was also no soap in one of the shower dispensers. When we told the front desk about it thwy said they would swnd someone to check on it but it was never addressed.

El hotel es precioso y está en una ubicación inmejorable. No obstante a pesar de que en expedía decía que contaba con estacionamiento esto no fue cierto y hubo que pagar una pensión extra que está a unas cuadras. La verdad se me hizo una grosería, no por el hecho de que tuviera que pagar sino porque no estaba especificado. Preferiría incluso que este costo ya viniera en el precio de la habitación.
