"Enjoy the property and proximity to downtown."
Overall Score4.0/ 5
Love staying here but more attention needed to insure room is made up at convenient time each day. Room could use brochures to familiarize guest about restaurants and conveniences and sites. On our last night there was a fire alarm which we did not hear or learn about until the next morning. No follow up to insure that everyone had vacated the property.

"Awesome Stay!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
Beautiful old world sanctuary! The hotel is gorgeous in a way modern hotels can not compete with. The staff was courteous and helpful. The hotel IS a destination, not just a place to sleep between places to visit, though it is right next to the beach and shopping and many restaurants. Loved it and will return.
