The location of the property is fantastic. The property itself is nothing special but good enough to enjoy your stay.

For the price point it was a good deal, definitely older building, thin walls and lots of traffic noise, but that’s to be expected being downtown. Very unfortunate that there was no parking. Street parking was terrible and they paid lot was a good five minute walk away and was very expensive.
