I had a great stay at this hotel! The rooms were comfortable, spacious, and quite modern, making it perfect for our college student needs. They were clean, and even though the balcony was small, it wasn't worth paying extra for. The service was friendly, and while there were minor issues like suspect friendliness, overall, it was good enough for a one-night stay. The location was excellent, just walking distance to all the downtown attractions we wanted to see. The dining was simple but perfect for us, and the staff were super nice. The facilities were adequate for our needs.

The rooms were clean and fine; don't bother paying more for a balcony as it's barely big enough to stand on.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very clean but not ready when we arrived, needing just a little improvement. The service was nice overall, with some staff being gracious but others rude. The location was convenient with great nearby attractions but sometimes gave an unwelcoming vibe. The dining was disappointing with limited offerings.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious, comfy, and clean, offering a view toward the historic district with a lovely balcony. However, the dining options were limited, and the value for money could be improved. The location was perfect for exploring the main tourist sites on foot, but parking was a bit of a hassle. The service was generally great, although I noticed some employees seemed overworked, affecting customer service quality.

The location was absolutely perfect for exploring all the main tourist sites and dining spots on foot. However, parking in the shady lot at the back of the building was a bit inconvenient.
