They should not charge for parking or coffee. Parking charge is outrageous!!!! $19 for one night! It’s not Manhattan!!!!! While there is coffee in your room you have to settle for fake creamers- yuck!! Or you have to pay $3 for coffee in the lobby & then there’s only one small size so you would have to walk back down for a second if you wanted more. Hardly “boutique”

This was one of best hotel values I've ever had. It had actual pillows with stuffing as opposed to the generic flat hotel pillows and a shower with great water pressure. The hotel is very cute and located right in the middle of downtown making most things walkable.
