The staff are friendly. Mill Avenue is a busy street but I didnt mind the traffic. Rooms are comfy and clean! Renovated. AC is perfect. Room has a small fridge but no microwave. Nice cable stations. Close vicinity to dine and shop. I stayed five nights here. Rooms were cleaned each day. Price was reasonable. I would definitely stay here again.

Cute and comfy

The staff was fantastic. The hotel is well kept. It's small and cute. Parking is very tight, which makes sense given the location. And there is considerable road noise, but there's nothing a hotel can do about that. It is terrifically located in a bustling area.

First from they put me in had a mattress that should have been thrown out 6 years ago. This thing was so far beyond worn it was like sleeping in an inner tube. Then they put me in a second room in which the electricity didn't work near the bed so I was unable to use my sleep machine. Kind of a noisy location as well
