Positive:
I love that it is woman owned and an eco hotel. The staff was so helpful and friendly. It was nice that we could borrow umbrellas, hats and bags for an outing.
Negative:
The kitchen used to serve breakfast was right outside our room so there was a bit of noise in the mornings. Although it was nice to use the patio right out front, it would have been nice to be in a room away from reception and the main walk through area. I could have requested a change but we were already settled into our room.
Summary: I love the concept of the hotel and appreciate all they do to be ecofriendly

The room that we got on our 2nd day had really high ceilings. The staff was very attentive.
Negative:
Hot water issues.
Summary: I don’t think I would stay in an eco hotel again if hot water is the trade off.
