8.2/10 Very Good! (869 reviews)

Great stay. I wish I had parked overnight on the street instead of paying 18 in the lot. Bed and room was very modern and comfy. Very nice area of town close to dining and shops. Surprised to find earplugs in room but emergency vehicles made it clear why - thanks staff! Check out the farmers market on Saturday. Really nice kids playground there if you have young ones.

Everything about this place is so charming! Yes- there will be a wedding Saturday night but it hardly impacts your stay! It’s great to see the people dressed up and celebrating!
