We liked the location and beautifully renovated building. The breakfasts were also great. Less good was that our bathroom was detached, so read the description carefully, La Salle, was the only room without en-suite facilities.

The house was a very nice older home with very welcoming and helpful staff. The breakfast was served by friendly wait staff and the food was excellent. Parking was a little confusing with spacing on two different streets. Communicating this on our arrival would have been helpful.
