This is a charming hotel, although it feels a bit tired. Room was overly warm and could not cool it down, even though it was not hot outside. Bathroom lacked outlets. Breakfast menu was uninspiring. Location is good with easy access to transportation. Area is a bit dead on the weekends but during the week there are multiple restaurant choices close by.
