This is charming and spacious with one queen bed, a walk-in closet, a desk, a sitting area, a Keurig, and an elegant European-style 3/4 bath. For each executive room, a single rollaway bed is available upon request. These can comfortably accommodate up to three guests.
Every room offers a Smart TV, Wi-Fi, complimentary coffee and tea, breakfast delivery, and daily housekeeping.
