Fantastic accommodations (simple but beautiful), gorgeous views, scrumptious food (everything…read morehomemade), not touristy...and amazingly down-to-Earth, friendly hosts. We had a large suite on the second floor, with a huge deck overlooking the valley and vineyards. Absolute heaven.

The corridor to the "Rooms with a taste" on the fourth floor somehow had a very strong scent that was close to intolerable to me. Also the taxi service around the town was slow at times, which probably was not specific to the hotel.
