8/10 Good
"This hotel is currently being renovated which is the only reason I give it four stars. But once it's done, it'll be great. Super clean rooms, above average breakfast, wonderful staff. I do wish they were microwaves in the rooms."

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was clean and quiet. The adaptive bathroom was outstanding. The hotel was accessible an all points. The morning breakfast wad good although lifting the lids on the food was not as easy from a wheelchair but not real different from other hotels. For people with adaptive needs. I would recommend this hotel higher than most I stay at."

8/10 Good
"Breakfast is cold bagels, toast, cereal, nothing special. Rooms are comfortable. AC works. Tiny little mini fridges that are good for a couple beverages. We had two noisy nights where college kids were hanging out in the hallways. Front desk staff addressed the issue, but the guests were rowdy the next night as well."

8/10 Good
"The property is so cute! The decor is all very on theme, which is fun. Great restaurant onsite and very helpful staff. The air conditioner in our room was very loud overnight, but that was really the only (and very small) negative. Highly recommend!"
