“Converted from college dorms during the summer, the hotel provides functional accommodations with generous storage, though some may find the interiors dated. Room configurations vary, with split-level layouts and spiral staircases in some units. Breakfast is available, but dining options are limited within the hotel itself; however, the helpful staff can assist with local information.”
