A little gem in a great location

Lovely facility in a great location. Close to everything, just leave the car in the onsite parking lot and walk downtown to explore the shops and many eateries. A perfect little place to relax and unwind.
Susan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A kick ass stay in a unique place. Staff was great, amenities and location are prime. My only beef is on the hot days the AC can’t keep up and on 3rd floor it was reading 80 degrees. I still highly recommend and would stay again.

Augustus, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is eclectic. Great spaces for gathering (several living rooms, patio areas, and a basement bar w pool table and bar), easy onsite parking and service oriented staff. Decent basic breakfast and afternoon sugar cookies. The property is tired, however. It needs a full refit and upgrade to be back to it’s former glory.
