Too noisy! We didn't shower while there. We didn't have time to wait for hot water They had no record of our booking when we checked in. Neither did the people in front of us. ##### danial Stayed 1 night in May 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa Jul 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This hotel is a hidden gem! We absolutely loved everything about it. It’s conveniently located within walking distance (we are talking 2-5 blocks) of basically everything in the heart of town. And, if you want to go further, you can easily get there by car. I didn’t get pictures of our room before the kids moved their things in for the night, but I tried to capture some of the other details. There is a secure parking lot for hotel guests 1/2 block away but also street parking nearby. A cute clothing boutique & gift shop in the lobby area also. Bonus - there are eco friendly touches - for example, the hallway lights turn off if there hasn’t been any motion for a period of time.
