I would recommend this hotel.
Pros:

Location was great close to most everything in walking distance since we didn’t have a car. Breakfast was very good every morning. Amenities were well provided. Beds were comfortable. Room was clean.

Cons:

Outdated could have used more lighting in key locations such as around mirrors in the room. Carpet is outdated and a little dirty.

Pros:

So close to the everything! Perfect location!

Cons:

I didn’t know I had to pay for parking.
When we stayed at Indigo Inn in August of last year parking was free. Also the room was very clean but it had a smell of cleaning bleachy musty solution.

Lovely stay, great location.
Pros:

Location was great, staff was friendly, and the room was comfortable.

Cons:

Our room didn’t have a refrigerator, and there were issues with the smoke alarm going off randomly. There was a small issue with the parking deck and they wanted to over charge us significantly, it was handled quickly.

WONDERFUL
Pros:

LOCATION, FRIENDLY STAFF

Cons:

RESERVATIONS WERE DECEICTFUL, WE COULD BARELY AFFORD THIS TRIP AS IT WAS, )BUT MY MOTHER JUST PASSED & MY HUSBAND WANTED TO TAKE ME AWAY.) SO UPON CHECKING IN & BEING CHARGED $41 A DAY FOR 4 DAYS PARKING BEING ADDED TO OUR TOTAL WAS AS SHOCK!! WAS NEVER STATED AT BOOKING OR ON WEBSITE ANYWHERE, OR I WOULD HAVE LOOKED FOR SOMETHING MORE AFFORDABLE EVEN IF IT WAS OVER THE RIVER UPDATE .. MANAGER RMADE IT RIGHT & REFUNDED US THE PARKING WE DID NOT EXPECT

The smell in rooms is a major problem
Pros:

I say this as someone who has a home in a tropical climate: fabrics must must be replaced and thoroughly clean more than any other climate.

My room smelled like a wet dog which means mildew and mold. It was so gross and beyond Febreeze or Lysol on fabric.

If you have an allergies or sensitivity DO NOT stay here.

All the carpet should be replaced with laminate wood, all curtains replaced. All furniture recovered.

The downstairs has hardwood and it’s a lovely space. They have a pretty outside with lots of seating.

The breakfast was wonderful and the staff was kind.

But this location needs a major overhaul. This should have been $120 a night for the value.
