Great stay-exactly as advertised!

Exactly as advertised, walkable location, overall good vibes! Well appointed, comfy and charming room, friendly staff, free/easy parking, and felt very safe for a solo female traveler. Live music on the patio was great. Fun bar, free morning coffee, and filtered water station a nice bonus. Would stay here again for sure!

Really fun old-school, mid-century modern hotel - with updated amenities. Woman who checked us in was welcoming, helpful and engaging. Although located off of a busy street, our room was quiet and very comfortable. The bar is stylish and unique. Would absolutely stay here again.

Although, this is an older hotel, the room was very clean. My only complaint was that my TV didn't work. Since I was only there one night I didn't report it but just left them a note.
