What we mainly loved was the smell of a clean room. Also, they left a couple of cans of local sodas and local cake in the room for us. And the staff was very very friendly. We loved the place.

Funky place that is lovingly cared for. Desk staff were personable and professional. I had a temperature/thermostat issue and they did their best to address it. Walking distance from so many things. If you are a walker this is the perfect starting point, and the city dot bus comes a block away. If you want plush, this isn’t the place. I’ll return.
