Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Our room is so clean and very comfortable. It was a little loud because of neighborhood bars but overall it was so comfortable so I still fell asleep and slept great. All the noise was gone by 2 AM. Parking was scarce because you have to park far and walk back to your room- If a metered parking opens up, you can move to it!

Extremely clean room. Allowed early check in. Staff checked us when we walked in to be sure we belonged there. Only two free parking spaces right in front if needed- metered parking otherwise - check the city’s website. The historic details were fun. Bed was a single mattress on metal frame but once you’re sleeping easy to disregard. Ac unit in room plus a fan. Bathroom access was scary to think about but it worked just fine. Only had to wait for use once during our stay. The kitchen and tv/billiard room was super cool for people staying longer. Plus the available laundry access was a great consideration. Especially loved the email offering nearby discounts. Definitely worth it.

Clean, cozy, but the beds can improve and is noisy, you can hear the other room’s conversation, they warn us about the outside noise because of nearby bars but it wasn’t that bad.
