Deciding to stay at the KVI was a last minute decision. Once there I was able to relax because my room was comfortable, the restaurant excellent and the environment soothing.

Warm and friendly was the feeling when I arrived... my kind of place- unpretentious, comfortable and clean with local charm. Wonderful food, great live music in the lounge- outdoor area as well. Convenient all stops for me. Looking forward to going back soon. more
