    Not fancy but so sweet. Painted ceilings , french bric a brac. Great little restaurant for free breakfast. No AC. Old elevator with a gated door. I could walk to all my meetings and felt very safe, comfortable and know there. I'd do it again.

    We paid 38 dollars and you can come and go as you please. You pay directly at the hotel and the garage is just across the street. Totally worth it.
