Oaktown Roost

Oaktown Roost

10/10 Excellent
"This place is the best. Feels more like an airbnb. Rooms with no windows have high ceilings and a window on the ceiling so the vibe is more like a loft. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Perfect location 1.5 blocks from the 12 St Bart. Parking was $40 and super easy. Lot is across the street. "
