Good (not great) hotel
"Cute boutique hotel in great location. Breakfast is wonderful and staff was nice. However, it’s on a busy street and with no A/C, sleeping with the windows open was really noisy. The room was very small and bathroom doesn’t give much privacy with a barn door. Also, the parking lot is very tight. ..."

"Our stay was very nice! Just had to wait for our room to be ready. We arrived around 3:40, but we could not get to our room until close to 4:30. My husband is on oxygen, so it was quite important for him to charge his portable machine."
