Very cute room and clean! Wish there were blackout curtains instead of shutters considering a street light was right outside my window. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant stay.

Great room. Modern decor and an awesome shower. For the price this room cannot be beat. one minor cons. Traffic noise. One a main street. Maybe one of the rooms near the back of the building would be better.
