The Heart of a great City!

Had a great stay. Place was clean and quirky but that was fun. One issue with supplies (no toilet paper). We had to go find our own. The shower is interesting but works fine. The location was great except for late night loud conversations in the alley. maybe workers getting done with their shift. A little smelly in the alley with the trash as well. Other than that we loved it.
