Not a place I would stay at, in the summer, as the rooms have no A/C. But for a nice weekend in October, it was fairly comfortable.

Book here!

I booked because this property was neutral to the college! I’m so glad I did! This place is a gem. Affordable, clean and convenient for what I was in town for!
