I was going out downtown and wanted a close stay but that had onsite parking as I didn't want to leave my car downtown overnight. Abpopa was the perfect place. $8 uber to anywhere you want to go. abpopa was charming, staff was present and friendly and helpful, room was cozy and quiet and clean. I slept great. Lots of good food right outside the front doors. Great spot can't wait to go back.

Appreciated the easy and responsive check in. Enjoyed the unique style of the room and it was filled with light and the little kitchenette. The bathroom was an odd layout but clean. Cool little cafe in the downstairs breezeway. Would stay here again.
