Cute, quiet property with spa access, walking distance from restaurant. Room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Property is listed as pet-friendly; however, you need to call ahead to arrange for a pet-friendly room, otherwise you will be charged a $150 fee, which was not a great surprise to start off our stay.

I found it disconcerting that there was nobody in the reception to ask some basic questions like the setup of Roku TV (did I really have to open an account?). Otherwise, the place is great.

Pleasant stay.
Nice place to stay, a little weird having to go up to a different hotel (Caribou) up the block to check in. Appeared clean but not overly so (We noticed dirt in the corners and edge along the bathroom floor, and it didn't appear to have been thoroughly vacuumed). It was nice that there were normal sized bottles of shower toiletries. There were ample hooks for hanging clothes, backpacks or purses, etc. on a little enclosure near the door. It was quiet. Bed was comfortable.

We spent 3 nights here on a recent vacation and enjoyed our stay. It was quiet, and the room was decent size. Although we didn’t use it except for ice the pantry area looked nice and stocked with food and drink options on an honor system. They did not have an elevator which I understand since it was a small property- just caught us off guard. The only thing we encountered was our room had a very damp feel to it. I know they have had a lot of rain in the area- but it was difficult to sleep as it felt very humid. We turned the air to a much cooler setting than we would normally have (66) and it seemed to help a little. The air may also not have been working properly as event set that low it was not cold in the room. All in all we enjoyed our stay.
