Let me start by saying I would for sure stay here again. Location was convenient, room was very clean, bed was very comfortable. My one take away from this place was that the netflix and apps would not work on the TV and the parking was EXTREMELY tight. The average driver would not even try to dit in some of those spots. Otherwise, great experience.

Cute hotel! Do your own local research.

The hotel has a lot of character and detail in design. It was disappointing to not have food and drink available onsite and the front desk staff couldn't offer local recommendations for food when asked.
