Quiet and close to the city

Pros: The room was about a 15 minute drive into the city. It’s located in a quiet and diverse neighborhood. Lots of cute restaurants near by. Grocery stores near by as well. No check in was great. The room was your basic hotel room with plenty of towels and bathroom supplies.Con: The room felt damp and humid. It smelled a little musky. It was clean, but the ventilation was not great.
