The parking situation was okay - though the lot is fairly small and one-way, with tight stalls that require some caution, it was still manageable with both front and back parking available. The property itself felt functional and cozy, and I really enjoyed the layout of the room. The only drawback was the cleanliness of the shower floor, which had dark copper-brown staining that looked like hard water residue and didn’t seem to have been properly cleaned. I raised this to the hotel staff and requested for housekeeping to check but upon my return that day, it didn’t look like that was done. I also did not get further feedback from the staff. I was only there for one more night so just left it. While that part was disappointing, overall I enjoyed my stay and found the location to be excellent.

Really nice hotel, it was a situated in a wonderful area, we could walk to several stores and restaurants. The only downfall was the trains that goes right by the hotel and several times a day and night. The hotel does supply free ear plugs, but I think it should be mentioned. Besides that everything was great.

The room was comfortable. Some coffee was supplied for the Kuerig coffee maker but no tea. The parking lot is super tight. The room would be ideal for longer stays (I was only in town overnight) as it has a full size fridge, microwave, oven and dishwasher.
