Well maintained and clean. Friendly and helpful staff! Free breakfast and coffee delivered to our room every morning was such a treat! Great location to everything in the historic district. Our room was decorated so charming and clean but only downside was the mattresses are wearing down a bit and need to be replaced, regardless, we slept well and I would still recommend. Great check in/checkout times as well!

Cute boutique hotel in old district

Just a few blocks walk to the famous market. Room was pleasant with high ceilings. Bed was a little soft. Continental breakfast was better than expected. Free parking behind building.

Tastefully renovated historic hotel, close walking distance to tourist attractions. Helpful and friendly staff. Quiet, clean and comfortable room. Easy parking lot immediately behind hotel for $17 / day (public parking lot). A continental breakfast is included, which was just okay.
