"Fantastic location, within walking distance of everything downtown. Decent sized and clean room with a very comfortable bed. The bathroom is also nice, though the soap for the sink was very watery. Convenient parking behind the hotel. Free snacks available all day. The train runs through downtown and blows its horn even at night. To counter that, there are white noise machines in the rooms and the office offers free earplugs."
