My stay at the Carmichael House Boutique Hotel was fantastic, though I did find the check-out time a bit early for my liking. The hosts, Yves and Valerie, were incredibly hospitable, and the atmosphere was both elegant and cozy. The breakfasts were delicious, but I would have enjoyed more variety, particularly with drink options.
