I've stayed in a few hotels where there is a shared bathroom down the hall. I've told my husband I'm not down for that anymore. And I might be wrong.
This hotel is that style, but the bathrooms were spotless and not busy. The location in downtown also suggests that many guests are just out and about having a good time and not hanging out in the hotel hogging the bathrooms. We certainly were!
Our room was small, but just fine and cozy for my spouse and I. Our room included a sink which seems essential if there is no bathroom and was much appreciated. The room was pretty warm so we ended up opening our window all the way which kind of freaked me out because they beautiful old fashioned windows with no screens - I was convinced a bird was going to fly in. Later, my spouse and I agreed that this isn't very kid friendly, but I think this isn't really a hotel that many with littles would choose anyway. The hotel is pup-friendly, though and we were happy to see a few canine guests.
The lobby and interiors are cute and we enjoyed a couple cups of coffee in the lobby both days just to soak in the ambiance. The lobby has a little thrift selection of cool items for purchase; a small mini market of snacks and drinks for purchase; and a lending library including games and DVDs which we availed ourselves of.
We felt lucky to get our room on a Saturday night during a "holiday" weekend and would definitely stay again! read more
