Great place to stay. Very close to everything we wanted to do downtown. Room was large and beds were comfy. Although breakfast is not included as stated. You just get a $10 voucher per person per stay to local restaurant. We know it was a voucher, but assumed you would get one per day not per stay.

Self-check-in was a little strange, but it you pay attention to their email instructions you'll be fine. The rooms are lovely, especially the one's over the street. The bar/restaurant in the lobby (not affiliated with the hotel) had amazing food, as did most of the shops we visited. Great, walkable part of town.
Cheese curds of course.
