I enjoyed that it was close to the water and a fun section of town. The building is older. It shows signs of wear in the rooms but they were clean and spacious. Parking was a bit tricky but they do have security in the lot.The staff was lovely.

I liked the vintage vibe of the hotel and the fact it was close to a park. The breakfast idea of serving a warm breakfast made then was great !!
