We’ve stayed at this location many times. This time our room was switched from a king to two queens without a closet. We were in town for a cocktail party and almost all of our clothes were hang ups. I asked if we could upgrade and pay the difference but was declined. I checked online later and there were still rooms available. The bartender was very rude. He was coming off his shift and continued to eat his food when we walked up then was very unfriendly.

This was a really cute little boutique hotel that offered a fun bar area, a great vibe and sweet employees. If you’re going to be there to visit a college student it’s extremely walkable for the campus. We gave it a 3 star for not having hot water for showers, being nickeled and dimed for every little thing, and the one outlet that we had access to didn’t work.
