So let me be clear - I love a funky independent hotel, and this is one! It has a checkered past, but has been renovated to be a fun, safe and quiet place to rest on a busy road only a mile from all the dining of downtown. I am happy to walk to town, but know that the long tunnel is challenging for air quality and an Uber is definitely a better option after dark. The rooms are average in size and quality, and the bathrooms are TINY, but the communal area is divine
