Was only in town 1 night to see a concert, but I would have loved to stay more. The hotel gives that 1950s/1960s vibe that is so cool. Well maintained and very comfortable.

Location is within walking distance to many different downtown dining and entertainment options. The hotel is clean and well maintained. Onsite staff is helpful and courteous. I have stayed at this hotel several times. This was the first time that I was charged for overnight parking, and that was not disclosed to me until I arrived for check in.

Cute, quirky place. Staff was EXCELLENT and friendly. Beds were super comfy and the robes were wonderful. A little more food options would be nice. Only coffee and pastries for breakfast, but they were good! We did hear some road noise and you can hear a train in the background. Would stay here again.
