Amazing boutique property. Nice staff members who helped with a quick check in and check out. The rooms were newly renovated with modern amenities. AC and Microwave in the room worked very well. Lot of dining options nearby at a walkable distance. Ample parking in front of the rooms. We had a very comfortable stay.

Very personable and helpful staff. The common area is perfect if you have your dog traveling with you. It will be especially nice when renovations to the front of the property are completed. The room was very clean and the linens were lovely.

Actually had a very good stay at this property for this property. The furniture was totally new and the bed was to die for. . We must keep in mind that they redesign the gardens. The remodeled rooms were not affected by the construction because they have finished rooms in the back

Staff service was great. Property still under construction. The old look is gone when it used to be The M. Property under reconstruction and needs to evaluate customer needs, comfort and convenience, not just cutting corners.
