10/10 Excellent
"Although this is an older hotel, management has done a great job of keeping it clean, well-maintained, and looking updated. The hotel is located in a safe area, within walking distance of just about everything you might need. I absolutely loved the location! The hotel does have an elevator, but there are still some stairs you may need to use to access certain rooms. If you have mobility concerns, I recommend contacting the hotel in advance to confirm whether a room is available that does not require climbing stairs. The breakfast selection was decent. The dining area was a bit small, but they made the most of the space and did a good job. I especially enjoyed the coffee! The staff seemed friendly and genuinely happy to be there, which made the experience even better. I also appreciated that the hotel offered parking. However, so many places were within walking distance that we really didn't need to rent a car. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend this hotel for its location, cleanliness, and welcoming atmosphere."
