Excellent location
The location and the price make this a very attractive hotel. It’s small and only two levels. Our room had the living space, which including a full kitchen, downstairs and the bedroom up, This hotel would be primo but the general maintenance/repair aesthetics are beyond poor. There were half patched holes in the wall without touchup paint covering the spackling, making the room look run down.
On the upside, the staff was friendly and helpful. I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone willing to see the perks of location, safety, and price and overlook generally minor cosmetic shortcomings.
Also, the parking is one block away in a large parking garage. Temporary parking is available in front of the building for loading/unloading, but long-term parking is in the garage. Guests are given a garage pass that allows for unlimited parking access
Will stay here again! I wasn’t feeling well and the woman at the front desk was so helpful. She even gave me her can of Coke! Great place and close to everything. We walked everywhere.
Excellent front desk staff and location! I liked the layout with the king bed upstairs and queen pull out downstairs. Some lighting was stark and needed warm tone bulbs! No reading/sitting chair in the upstairs suite… that was an issue - no where to sit and no floor lamp.
Conveniently located and in walking distance of all tourist activities. Great staff.

Unique historical property with pleasant inner courtyard, next to City Market. Living room, kitchen and halfbath on entry floor, bedroom and full bath on upper floor, very comfortable beds. Only problem upstairs shower water was barely warm.

We had no hot water, shower controls broken. Needs paint , baseboards dirty. Air conditioning made a loud banging noise that kept us awake all night. Location is perfect.
