Lovely Place
Loved the decor, boutique details, cleanliness, and walkability to eateries and shops! Did not like that our west facing room was a bit warmer or the big, hard pillows.

Liked: Cleanliness
The property was quaint and the rooms beautifully decorated. The property is a bit rundown and needs to be updated fairly soon. The beds were comfortable and the temperature good. My 2 biggest complaints are 1/ the pillows; extremely full, firm pillows that force your neck into unnatural positions. Asked for softer pillows and they do not carry any. 2/ There was no standing shower and you had to sit in the bathtub to take a shower. There was no instruction to turn on the shower and spent 20 min finally discovering a little latch behind the tub faucet not visible.

Great place to stay! Very close to campus, which is what I needed. Parking was a little confusing, but once I called and they explained it not a big deal. Highly recommend staying here very convenient to everything.

The staff was very friendly. This property does not work well for people over 60 plus. The claw tub looks cute but is not practical for someone older. The club down the street was not a problem. However, road noise did not ease up until after midnight and some incidents even much later. Grounds were not kept and need some attending..
