Nice older place, clean but the carpets are dated and the parking is tight for an SUV. Lots of places to eat around the hotel. Felt safe walking around at night.

Good clean convenient location. Older building with no frills but reasonably priced. Only issue was the traffic noise with front room. Off street room would probably be better.

Very clean and comfortable. Bathroom was very cramped though, to the degree it was hard to shut the door! Could hear guests in adjoining room. They were quiet but would be a problem if loud. Great location and price.
