I loved staying at this hotel. It was very clean and comfortable. The location is great as well. The street is a bit loud because of bars, but I couldn't hear the noise with the window closed. I would stay here again.

Amazing staff and rooms. Easily walkable and safe area. Regardless of what you're told by the staff, please park at the city hall garage. It's less than 30 a night, parking on the street is confusing and a nightmare.
