I am so glad that we found this place for our Thanksgiving visit with Mandeville family. We stayed in the Constance room. It was smaller than a typical hotel room but sufficient space for our short visit. The room was super clean and nicely appointed with soft sheets (would like to know what brand?), a coffee station, mini-fridge and microwave. Parking was easy and the location was within walking distance to multiple restaurants and bars but we did not hear any noise. The managers were very prompt when we requested to move our reservation by one day as our plans changed. We will return - we visit family a couple of times each year and sometimes want to make our visit a vacation rather than just a visit so being able to enjoy all that Mandeville offers is a bonus. So glad that that there was a late cancellation and we found the Guesthouse on Girod.
