Better than chains

What a lovely downtown small hotel! Just what we were looking for. The balcony on the street was great- wonderful place to sit outside and watch the city go by. Also the restaurant was excellent- we had the best meal there. That is a little jewel connected to the hotel. Take advantage of it if you stay there.

Could have been better.

The hotel is very nice, but the beds were uncomfortable, there was rarely anyone at the front desk, our coffee maker didnt work and rooms are not cleaned unless you request it.

Older property with a lot of charm. I stayed during the week and it was very quiet. The staff was great. Very friendly and helpful. A/C worked beautifully (very important to me). I would probably stay again due to price and location. A few things could be improved - for the most part the room was clean but there were some areas that were caked with dust. No soap for the sink, but I travel with my own, and the bed was just ok.
