    A perfect getaway

    It was a perfect match for my weekend. A quaint place with everything that I needed. I had all the utensils to be able to cook. A very nice place to relax between running errands with family. It is close to almost every activity over the weekend. I will definitely return to this place again next time.

    Jewel Box

    Overall it was nice. Parking was a challenge. One improvement needed: a trash receptacle that can hold a 13-gallon garbage bag in the kitchen area.
