Room was extremely small but clean. Hotel is old and it shows. Parking was almost impossible in a cramped back lot. Could not get breakfast - had to be ordered in advance.

Excelente location with friendly staff. The lack of an elevator was an issue. If you can't climb stairs, request a ground floor room. There's a nice river trail steps from the hotel. The Botanic Garden and many good restaurants are a short walk away.
