Loved the shower and covered parking. The vehicles were secure. Very polite check in personnel. Only thing thing I missed was free coffee in the morning from the lobby. It would’ve made 5 star. Thankfully, there was a 711 in walking distance…but it was a very cold morning.

What a great place to stay! Shawn (or maybe it's Shaun or Sean) and Xavier were fantastic hosts. The hotel is in a great location, walkable to lots of good restaurants, and (if you're a fan of classic TV) the Brady Bunch house is less than a mile away!
