The sheets were rough and itchy. First time I've ever experienced that at a hotel. There was no lotion in the room. It seemed like a very bare bones place. Breakfast is not free, nor is there any service. The only option is to order off a board that is Starbucks. We will not stay there again.

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Service was great! Very friendly staff all the way around. Unfortunately the noise outside on work being done on the street was very loud and kept us awake. The walls are paper thin between rooms so that didn't help either. We may have had bad luck with placement of our room, but everything else was fine. Great location for the college tour.
