8.8/10 Excellent! (1,007 reviews)
"This is a darling hotel, with the restaurant being the highlight. The room was tiny but perfectly adequate for our needs, and was clean and bright. Check in isn’t until 4 pm so don’t come early (though they will hold your luggage while you do something else.) Breakfast was nice as well."
