Summary: For the location, the pricing was great. The staff was very nice, from the front desk to housekeeping. Just know that the rooms are very small, and quite dated. I would have felt better if the toilet seat wasn't so worn through that you could see wood grain rather than paint on much of it. Seriously for $12 it would have made a difference on how clean it felt. The staff came in to work on some water damaged door trim (we didn't cause) and opened it up, so wasn't happy about the black color that was left open while we stayed. I don't know that it was black mold, but definitely looked it. The showers were sometimes not hot. That aside, the place is charming in its own way with a cute courtyard that was used by guests frequently. They do provide ear plugs as it is on a busy street. Parking in the adjoining lot is tight, and mostly we had to park on the street, but they do have cameras on additional spots there. Again, the location is great and for the price there was nothing else even close. Just a few things to be aware of.

Summary: The only thing I could add to help is ensure there is enough toilet paper. On our last night we ran out.

Summary: The front desk called us when we left something in the room quickly so we had time to turn around and retrieve it

Summary: We stayed two different nights. The first room was near the front of the property and had a lot of traffic noise. The check in process was strange in that there was no one at the front desk for about 20 minutes and we had to wait to check in with a bunch of other folks. It would have helped if they left a note. The second night we stayed was better because the room was at the back of the property, so it was quieter. It was great that there was free parking and the courtyard was nice. It was also nice to have free coffee and water at the front. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. All in all - it was a good property and I would stay there again.

Summary: It would also be nice to have a shared kitchen with a stovetop and a microwave, as well as a later check-out time.
