Doesn’t light up your life!
The bathroom lighting was extremely poor. We were there for a wedding and got ready with poor lighting. It was awful. My sister who was in another room had no mirrors in the room. We had to go out to buy mirrors. Not sure if we would come back to this hotel.

I thought this place was really cute. We booked it super last minute for a busy weekend, so we got a room without a bathroom and had to use the shared bathrooms. But it worked out well. I never had to wait. Everything was so nice. I loved the bathrobes too. I have two tiny complaints. One would be the pillows were too big and poofy. Way too thick for me to be comfortable. Some slim pillow options would be nice. And the sheets smelled like bleach.

We enjoyed the central location of the hotel. Parking was tricky, and we wish the hotel had parking spaces on the lot across the street.

Great location!
We realized we do not like shared bathrooms and it was tough not having any running water in the room. Even a small sink woulf be great!
