This is definitely a no frills hotel but it was perfect for our needs. Rooms were clean and the beds were very comfortable. We thought it had a "European vibe" like the B & Bs you would find when traveling abroad.

Great Location, very simple rooms

Great location but very basic hotel. Window units in room only would run when on high which was very noisy and the mattresses both had severe low spots in them.

Although the room was clean and the bed comfortable, is not worth $174 per night. If security is your concern there are not safety boxes and the lock for the room is with a regular key and the knob is the same as any room in a house. We were in the only room next to the front desk were the front door is open 24/7 so you’d hear everything. Parking is free on one side if the street if you find a spot and only from midnight to 8am in front of the hotel. I’d pay for this stay $90 per night at the most.

Everything was okay about the stay except two things: 1) the TV did not work properly (asked to fix but it was never done); 2) there was no chair, with a back, in the room (asked for it but never received a follow-up).
