“The staff here truly make a difference, exuding a warmth that's felt from check-in onwards. Rooms are consistently noted as clean and comfortable, with a welcome touch of homeliness and some even equipped with small kitchenettes. Its proximity to the university and Main Street is a definite draw, complemented by ample, well-lit parking.”
