    Location was perfect right on the main street. Room was basic, but great for what I needed. Property is an old house so no elevator, but wasn't prepared for 2 flights of very narrow stairs to get to the room from the outside. Overall, good option...

    We we’re lucky to get a room in the back (not the main building) so we had our own deck and a beautiful view. Room was spacious; clean; and quiet. Property is right down town so we walked to everything.
