Excellent stay! Clean, Modern and Visually Appealing
So many great touches!! Great coffee. Snuggly throw. Tap for fresh water with glass water bottles. Umbrellas. Great light and mirror for putting on makeup in bed room (a makeup table would have been a nice touch in the bedroom). Excellent location. Quiet. Great view over Main Street. Very comfortable bed… slept amazing! (The couch cute but not so comfortable). Owners did wonderful job of creating a fun and beautiful experience.
