excellent stay in a cozy place

the staff provided a custom map and helpful information about the area! the building, a repurposed home from a former era, has a fun, artsy vibe. i also enjoyed the catchy sound selections played during working hours.
the wooden floors creaked loudly with every movement, and conversations in the hallways made it difficult to sleep. this noise disturbance impacted the overall experience.
