Excellent Location and Newly Renovated!

great neighborhood free parking easy exploration

The neighborhood is fantastic! The hotel is located close to many restaurants and cute shops. The included parking was a great perk, especially with how busy the area can be. The location made it easy to explore.

The walls seemed a bit thin. I could hear some noise from neighboring rooms.

The room was HUGE and recently renovated. The bed was super comfortable, a BIG plus after long days of sightseeing. The bathroom was nicely updated, I especially liked the size and design.

convenient location free parking good coffee uncomfortable pillows dirty carpet no bench

the location is really convenient. i found parking easily which was free. the staff provided good coffee in the office (it tasted very nice).

The pillows could use an upgrade. They were not very comfortable. the exterior walkways had old and dirty carpet. i also noticed the rooms lacked a bench or a dedicated space for suitcases (it was a bit inconvenient).

non-operational machine tight spots

The hotel has updated rooms. the coffee machine in the lobby was not working . I needed coffee in the morning but could not get any from the lobby. The room was okay, though the window faced what looked to be blocked balconies. The free covered parking is great, but spots are so tight. It was difficult to maneuver my vehicle.
