The room was clean and tidy and perfect for the price. No breakfast included, but all restaurants, coffee shop and shopping closeby. It was quiet except the room doors are very noisy when they fall shut and the hotel started cleaning up the rooms fairly early the next morning, so it was loud in the hallway. Maybe

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately, due to street construction, the parking lot was a challenge to get to and from. More of a concern was the unexpected noise from the street, until 3 AM. Nothing the hotel can do about that, but it did make for short nights of sleep. Otherwise, the folks at reception were great and it was a very nice, usable room, in a location convenient to almost everything in town.

Hotel has an excellent location but unfortunately they are tearing up the street outside the front door which makes it very inconvenient to get from the garage to the front door. Room was clean but street noise made opening the windows at night (no A/C) impractical so room was a little warm.

You do not have control of the room temperature. They have a ceiling fan and will give you extra fans tough they will blow hot air. I was not able to sleep and woke up sweating
