Quaint hotel in a great location
Great location. Friendly staff. A bit pricey, but my business trip did align with graduation week. Breakfast was the same very day, but was quite extensive and high quality.

Great location; nice hotel.
Great location, helpful staff. Rooms are comfortable but need some updating for technology. There's not enough outlets close to the bed or in the room in general. Don't want to plug into the USB. Make some actual outlets accessible near the bed.
