Vineyard Views and Easy Access

perfect locationlovely gardenseasy check-inequipped kitchen
The location was perfect ,especially because of the close proximity to several wineries. The outdoor areas included lovely gardens right outside. I found the check-in process easy. The kitchen had all the equipment I needed.
I did find that one of the dining room chairs was a little saggy.

Wonderful Stay Among the Vines

idyllic locationhelpful staffmountain viewroad noise
The hotel was in a idyllic location. Vineyards and baby animals were right behind the building. It was lovely. Waking up to views of the mountains from the back was just perfection! The super nice team. The amenities were all in good working order, and I'd happily return for a longer stay.
The hotel was near a busy road. It was still very quiet, but I did notice the road noise sometimes.
