Great getaway

This was a wonderful property to stay at. It was a quick walk to anywhere we wanted to visit and we got to stay on the historic Snake Alley. The accommodations were clean and modern and it was quiet, just a lovely overall experience. I would say if you have a hard time walking or with stairs you may not want to stay here as it is a steep walk.
