Great location

Chris, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great price for the PERFECT location. Small, very clean comfortable rooms. Very convenient parking for less than anywhere nearby. Nice coffee bar. But ... the elevator is not handicap accessible from the front door. An ever-changing (but friendly) cast of front desk staff makes it necessary to explain situations multiple times.
