The breakfast was the worst I’ve ever had. They literally have frozen egg and sausage croissants, they tasted terrible and the oatmeal was so bad. They only had orange juice and coffee available, nothing else, I was so disappointed.

Great little hotel. Stayed twice already. Rooms are clean, spacious and beds are comfortable. Sounds silly but the fact that we had real coffee cups in our rooms vs. cardboard to go cups was nice as well. Loved the theme and decor and having a balcony was perfect. Location rocks. It’s close to everything. We walked everywhere. Only ok item was breakfast. It was just oatmeal, cereal some apples and small croissant sandwiches. But we were fine with it as a hold-me-over. Definitely recommend and will be back.
