I had such a wonderful stay at this resort! Everything was beautiful, peaceful, and very well taken care of. The staff were kind and welcoming, and the whole atmosphere made it easy to relax and enjoy every moment. My favorite part was spending the evenings by the fire it was so cozy and calming under the night sky. It truly made the experience feel special. I would definitely love to come back again

If you are looking for an affordable place to stay in little italy, this is right in the middle of everything. however the hotel is just a little run down and the walls were so thin that we couldn’t get any sleep due to our neighbors TV blasting. Also check-in was at 3 pm but our room wasn’t ready til about 30 minutes later.
