Comfortable, attractive rooms. Decent included breakfast. Close to Lou Slugger Museum & Frazier History Museum. Cheaper than more centrally located hotels. Not a bad choice for those who are willing to walk a few extra blocks. Easy access to NuLu via city bus. 8.5/10.

Loved the shower: hot water, the glass curved door, stepping in a shower, not a tub, the high shower head, plenty of head room. The water pressure could have been harder. Our corner room was clean. Loved the full length mirror in the hallway. Not super quiet as our room faced the street, but we managed.
