You're gonna say, "OMG across the street from a cemetery? next to an auto shop?" But this place is wonderful! Great library. Comfortable lounges. Spacious accommodations.

Loved Our Stay; looking forward to next time!

Spotlessly clean and very, very comfy. We walked in fresh from a stressful few weeks and walked out totally rested and ready for whatever’s next. The lobby is very pretty and welcoming. Everyone in the staff we had any contact with was delightful. Loved the neighborhood. Entire shopping up and down the street and music at Green Mill. Highly recommend all of it!
