Beautifully remodeled and clean! Comfortable bed and nice cool room with new carpet. Could use a little more counter space in the bathrooms but both bathroom and bedroom were very neat and clean. I would definitely recommend anyone in the area to stay here. Sarah is amazing, as well!!

The bed was great, best sleep I have had in awhile! The building is right downtown so walkable to a little shopping and restaurants. Parking was right behind the building in their very quiet ramp. They had a small selection of free breakfast items in the foyer that was a nice surprise. The only downside, even though the building is nicely renovated, the entry level has a bit of a funky old building smell, but the smell isn’t up in the second floor where the hotel rooms are.

Beautiful building, rooms are newly renovated however it would have been nice to follow the decor of the older building for nuance. Staff was friendly and rooms were well maintained and clean. The only issue we had was finding the entrance from the parking ramp. It wasn’t clear that the hotel entrance was the entrance that appeared to belong to Roma’s Italian restaurant. Other than that the stay was wonderful.

Very clean safe area. Room was small but clean. The head of our bed was tilted down significantly. We had to put pillows between the box spring and mattress to try and level it out. Bed was way to soft, we did not get good rest.
