We liked the convenience of this property to the university and walking around town. There are many shopping and dining options within a short distance. The room was clean and the hvac was quiet. Music from a neighboring establishment was bothersome on a Saturday night, but I suppose that comes with the downtown convenience. We would repeat on our next visit to the area.
