Frost and Fire Boutique Hotel

Frost and Fire Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The staff was very helpful. Walked us to our room and showed us where to park. The room was cozy and comfortable. A hot tub right outside our door! Very convenient. It's drained each night, so also it's very clean. The views of the river while relaxing in the water were the BEST. The breakfast was delicious and there were so many great choices. Would highly recommend."

"Very large place, with full refrigerator, stove and microwave - even has a washer and dryer. Heating is in the floor, so slow to adjust to the temperature you want, but calling the property management was helpful in trouble-shooting what we should do to get the place cooler (in September!). Walkable to the new old town section and right across the street from a Netto. Very handy location."
