This was a great place for a short stay! All of the employees were friendly, very helpful, and quick to offer suggestions and recommendations for places to eat and other local activities. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The linens were fresh, and the bed was comfortable. The hotel is older but well-maintained, giving off a fun retro vibe. It's nothing fancy, no breakfast or special amenities—just basic, but we would definitely stay there again!

They have a great parking structure directly underneath the hotel with elevator access which made it convenient and safe to park. The hotel walkability to downtown was awesome, short walk to coffee shops, bakery, Trader Joe’s, and the farmer’s market on Tuesday. The room was simple but with all the amenities one would need for a comfortable night, plenty of lights and outlets, comfortable bedding. The mattress was good for me, not so much for my husband. For the price, we felt it was a good place to stay.
