The Hotel Salem
Great hotel and great location! Would definitely stay there again. Only issues were off site parking (available but at guest’s expense), difficult to use tv (no guide for local channels), and no shelves or hand rails in the shower. Enjoyed the roof top bar and dining - beautiful view! Wish the restaurant near the lobby had been open while we were there, but it is only open certain days of the week.
