Lovely place. Clean, quiet and within walking distance of every convenience. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Only potential issue was the parking area, which was overflowing the first night, and blocked us in the next morning for a while.

Convenience to the western end of the CBD was a plus. The room has had a few years under it's belt. Bit of a musty smell noticeable when you first enter, probably coming from a bit of water damage on the base of the shower. Overall for the price not bad bang for your buck.

This is a hidden gem of a place! We stayed in the motel portion behind the B&B and they are very nice and quiet. Plenty of room, stocked amenities in the kitchenette, comfy bed, very hot water, a/c if you need it. Patio doors open to a secluded, sunny area to relax. Hard to find at first with a hidden driveway. We had to drive around the block twice and then just enough spots for the guests. Very walkable to city center. We'd stay here again!

Upper unit in the motel which is behind the B&B. Roomy, clean, nice balcony, well-appointed. We were given an early check-in which we really appreciated. Next door is construction site but it did not intrude on the quiet. Parking on site.
