Room was clean and refreshed daily. Quiet at night. Parking was free and easily accessible, just outside the room. It was nice for us personally that the spots accommodated a large vehicle without any issue. Just outside the rooms was a nice porch with chairs, great for booking rooms adjacent to friends. Staff was super friendly and helpful with local recommendations. Many walkable options. Great for a stay with friends or families and was kid-friendly. Other perks were great AC/heating unit, in-room mini fridge, communal coffee and water refill station just steps from the room.
