We had the perfect stay with our family of 4\. Owner was responsive and very thoughtful in every way. The location literally can’t be beat. Central to everything yet peaceful and quiet to let us recover from our jet lag! The rooftop balcony was the perfect place for coffee in the morning, and wine at sunset. Would stay here again and recommend highly! ##### Lynn F.
