Areas for Improvement

Parking can be a bit tricky, and some guests note that rooms facing the street may pick up a bit of city noise. If you're a light sleeper, requesting a quieter room at check-in might help. Also, while there’s no on-site live music, the close proximity to local venues more than makes up for it.
