What a perfect spot for a quick trip! The rooms are clean and well decorated, staff are lovely and the location is just a short walk to the Fairfax Farmers market where you find the a great selection of restaurants and market foods. Also walking distance to the Grove if you like outdoor malls. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Stayed for 6 nights. Great room, large size and very clean. Huge bed and very comfortable. As with 09% of places I’ve stayed the road traffic can be heard, ear plugs are provided. This didn’t cause any issue.

Great location and very cute but the we selected it for the amenities and all - restaurant, pool and bar were all closed the entire stay for a private party. There was no compensation or discounted rates for the loss of amenities and we were very disappointed.

Cute, fun little boutique hotel with nice decor. Came with teen daughter for the close proximity to The Grove. Enjoyed the complimentary coffee in the pretty courtyard each morning. Only downside was the hvac in the room was super loud even on fan mode.
Quiet courtyard is a peaceful place to enjoy the free coffee in the morning!
