What a lovely find! This place exceeded my expectations and my husband and I felt like we were in Europe with the complimentary breakfast spread and espresso drink machine. I was expecting a granny-style B&B but this place was pretty funky and I loved the decor touches around every corner. Would definitely stay at another Lark Hotels property!

The hotel is very brightly decorated, with dark walls and ceilings. I entered through the back guest entrance, from the parking lot, and there were no signs to indicate where to go, or where the elevator was. The staff were ok, but a bit condescending I would say. The breakfast was better than expected - included some pastries and savory items - cheese stuffed ham roll ups, and salami, cheese, lettuce and tomato skewers. There was also the typical bagels and bread, cereal and oatmeal, and a fruit salad. Everything was very clean, but my room had a cracked sink, and I believe the toilet top - buttons - were also damaged. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. Overall - ok.

What a delightful inn! We loved the cozy feel overall, our room was very comfortable, and we appreciated the breakfast and the little bar area. Plus, only a few minutes walk to town for restaurants and shopping. Would definitely stay again!

Charming hotel, close to downtown, very cozy!
It was our second time staying at this hotel. We loved it, with the exception of having a room under the stairs and close to the lobby. We would definitely stay again, though!

It is an excellent, convenient hotel near shopping and dining areas, pleasant stuff. Breakfast could be improved by providing hot (not warm) coffee and plain Greek yogurt.
