The property is in a good location if you're wanting to walk around downtown. The room itself was nice but the bed was Extremely hard and the air conditioning sounded like a freight train, so every time it kicked on we woke up. It shook the walls, and when we told the front desk in the morning they simply blamed the weather. But it was only in the 50s outside so I didn't understand this reasoning.

Really enjoy the stay, the only 2 thing I didn’t like was, the parking was $30 and they took out of my card $100 refundable deposit that they didn’t disclose online.
