We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Secret Garden with our dog, Ozzie. It is not often that he is welcomed into such lovely accomodations! Flowers in our room and our water was very fresh and we thought a very considerate touch.

Not worth the money indeed. I did not enjoy staying there. The room was small and smelly. The bed sheets do not look clean. The rug was brownish black. They did not offer sufficient toiletries. We had to find an iron ourselves in ... more on CitySearch
