9/10 Wonderful! (845 reviews)
Small but kept spotless. We got a free breakfast buffer with our rate and the spread was outstanding. Great location in that you can walk to the Central Market area in 5 minutes.

The rooms and property exceeded my expectations. Well maintained and beautifully appointed. The staff couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly. The property is on the hillside giving gorgeous views. I was nervous about dragging my suitcase up the hill but I was met in the parking area and everything was taken care of for me proactively. They have a lovely bar/restaurant area with a good selection of food and wine. You can't go wrong booking this wonderful property.

The AC did not work the first day we were there, not very happy about that. But overall the hotel is amazing.

Bring sturdy footwear for the trek down. Especially if it has rained, it will be muddy and slippery.
