Hotel was easy to find and the staff were friendly and responsive. Not much other than a room with plenty of parking but it's clean and quiet, still very close to the North End where we had dinner (17 min drive).

Sort of dark on the outside of the building, my TV reception wasn't too good, and the shampoo bottle was almost empty. But plenty of towels, safe feeling area, even if it was a bit remote, heat worked, WIFI good, plenty of free parking and coffee, water pressure/temperature was good. I'd definitely stay here again if in the area.
