Very nice, clean, quiet hotel with boutique feel and friendly staff. Best thing is being next to campus and walkable. Only negative was the restaurant did not have breakfast available the first 2 days of our stay, only had coffee which you have to pay for. Was told by server that grill broke on first day, then there was an “emergency” (maybe no kitchen staff?) the next day.

The vibe is so quaint and eclectic! Plus it’s dog friendly. I’d only suggest a better food menu and room service but otherwise a fantastic hidden gem. The ladies at the front desk were super nice!

Rooms are decorated in such a unique, fun way. We had a suite with a balcony and it was worth the extra money. Front staff were excellent. Restaurant staff could have better customer service. Will return.
