9.2/10 Wonderful! (138 reviews)

The property was very cute, and the front desk staff were very helpful, attentive, and quick to respond to our messages on Expedia. The rooms were cleaned well. It's a walkable distance to most things, which was convenient. The room was moist. Everything had a dampness to it, and had a moldy smell in the sheets and comforter. We got in bed, and it even felt like moisture was coming from the mattress itself? The smell was overpowering and took away from the experience at the hotel.At first I thought maybe this was due to the climate, but we had no issues like this at any other hotel on our trip. If there was not the moisture/mold issue, I would have rated this hotel between a 4-5 stars.
