I loved that I was close to everything in a quiet area. Friendly. I will come back.
Pros:

The front desk staff made me feel like a friend. They helped me with my questions what's nearby. It's nice to have that connection when you arrive in a new area. I got my money's worth with this stay.

Cons:

I would have preferred a room without a door in between. I could hear the neighbors.

Great stay. I will return.
Pros:

The room and breakfast exceeded expectations. I was there for 5 nights and the staff supplied fresh towels and supplies daily.

Cons:

The only caveat: I always wear earplugs so it wasn't an issue for me but the AC may have been a little loud.
