Good basic hotel . Good city location . Great walking distance to the octagon & train station . Decent continental breakfast . Pleasant staff .The parking lot is a joke . Which being in the city is sometimes the case .we paid the extra $15 for better parking as we had a full size vehicle . We were afraid of getting blocked in otherwise . If you arrive early in the day & have a small car you may luck out & have a spot to park .
