Soothingly decorated space and a block walk from the lake made this a fantastic spot to book. I loved being able to bring our pug with us for the trip. Alma left us a bottle of rose and a nice note with dog-friendly suggestions. Parking may seem confusing but you do back into the spot. It is sideways, different from all of the spots around it. If you park properly your car will face the gate head-on. Very close to the thorndale station and some good restaurants. We had good Thai food at a spot on thorndale and a good breakfast at Ann Satter. Also can walk to Walgreens and whole foods.
