I thought the place was easy to check in staff were kind. I did not like that there was no safety lock for inside the room to put a chain over the door. There was one deadbolt but staff could open it if needed. Something to keep in mind if you also bring small children and want a safety lock.

It is an older building but remodeled. Staff were accommodating and let us store our luggage when we arrived before check in and notified us when the room was ready. I loved the food options. Mediterranean Market and Franklin Market.

Not a place I would stay at, in the summer, as the rooms have no A/C. But for a nice weekend in October, it was fairly comfortable.

Area was safe and room was very clean. Would have liked more than one trash can and having shampoo and separate conditioner and also lotion. We got small packets of shampoo and conditioner combined.
