For the price you pay, it's a quaint little hotel! It was clean, comfortable and quiet! The staff was friendly and checked in with us often. The breakfast didn't have any hot options other than waffles and bagels, but it was still a nice spread for being included in the price. This was our second stay, and it was overall a great experience!

We were unable to stay. Checked into the hotel, saw the room and immediately searched for a back up hotel. The room looked NOTHING like the stock pictures posed on hotels.com. The bathroom was extremely dirty, there was wallpaper rolling off of the walls, and the room was poorly lit. Additionally, when we arrived a side door was left propped wide open. We did not feel safe and I am quite disappointed that I payed for a room we were unable to stay at due to safety concerns.
