The “Penthouse” was very much as described. Very clean and well equipped for our 2 night stay. We appreciated the reserved parking. We would return.

Thank you so much! We’re glad you found the suite spacious and comfortable 😄 Perfect spot for checking out the local shops and restaurants! You’re always welcome back.
The location was perfect and there was plenty of room to stretch out. The parking spots were always available. A 30 second walk to the best sandwich on the planet (San Benito House Deli - cheese and avocado on wheat).

We’re glad you had a good stay. Thank you as well for your feedback. We really appreciate it and will keep it in mind to help improve the arrival experience.
Convenient downtown location, great restaurants available within walking distance. Excellent king size bed was very comfortable. Living room furniture a bit sparse and not too comfortable, no reading light in living room, no foot rests. Unit was stuffy, we found one fan that worked well, the second one was noisy. Big shower, used mat in bathroom, need bigger one as shower is slippery. A bench near the front door would be a nice addition, for taking off shoes. Parking was convenient.

Congratulations on your 20th wedding anniversary, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back for another getaway in the future!
This penthouse was spacious and clean and matched the description on the listing. It's best features were the location - right off of Main Street - and the beds. The main bed was huge, and even the sofa bed was quite comfy. It was also quite quiet. It was pricey given the location, but worth it.
