Best Getaway

Hubby and I are addicted to once a month getaways and decided to do a local one. We lucked up in a parking spot a block down that wasn’t for reserved parking and were walking distance to get bars and restaurants. We have told many of our friends that they have to experience this.

Stayed here for work

Started a new job and stayed here 3 nights. For the limited cost budget, it was a good option for lodging. The parking situation was a bit difficult. I got my exercise though walking to and from Mercer garage.
