The hotel was simple but cute. The front desk staff were fine enough and the valet service was alright. They weren’t overly nice but also not rude. My husband and I enjoyed our stay overall, and it’s in a convenient location! We didn’t check out the pool but it seemed like something that would be enjoyable in the summertime!

Bathroom was too small and water took TOO long to get warm. No amenities line in-room coffee. Black out drapes did not work. Beds and pillows very uncomfortable. $59 per day for street parking. Very very noisy location.

Room was spacious and clean. I really like the retro decor. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Being downtown I couldn’t hear much of the outside noise. Slept great! We did not eat at any of the restaurants here. Just had coffee and a danish in the morning at the cafe. Good coffee and danishes.
