Artsy Boutique Hotel
Adorable boutique style place. The room Was perfect for 3 people. We had a queen with a sofa sleeper. The room was a great size especially when the sleeper sofa was folded up. The room was super clean. It also had a great little coffee area. The rooftop was a great way to end the night!
