Mostly great. Decent price, friendly staff, early check-in/out options, comfortable accommodations. Very good wifi. My only gripe is that the windows aren't well sound-proofed, so the partiers down on the street were quite loud, even on the 3rd floor. I'd stay here again, but only if other options weren't available.

Yes, all of the above Coppie was excellent at the front desk. Beautiful room, friendly staff all around. Loved the jam session in Big Bad John's!!! Drank my fair share of really good local craft ales. Especially traveling alone I felt so safe and protected.
