Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's great location and friendly staff, with many highlighting the convenience to local attractions. However, there were significant complaints regarding noise levels, especially from nearby schools and traffic, as well as cleanliness issues in some rooms, particularly those located in the basement. Overall, while the location and service were praised, the noise and cleanliness detracted from the experience for several guests.

Brad, Aug 2017
Pros (+) Location. 2 alcoves for a family of 4, a little tight but well- suited.
Cons (-) Non-potable water from the sink? At least they let us refill our drinking bottles in the kitchen. Very labile hot-cold settings on the ahower. Tired building- carpets etc a little shabby.
