I ended up saying 3 nights. Joy was professionally and very kind. I have experienced some rude nad dispissive front of house people. So this was such a refreshing contrasts. Nothing was too much bother. As a single female traveller she made my stay easy. Thank you Joy"

"Very well-decorated room in a renovated historic building on a busy road. The front desk person was very friendly and helpful. The room was small but cozy. The parking was a block away, which wasn't a problem, but there wasn't any place to drop off your luggage while you checked in. The continental breakfast had high quality food, but not many choices. I felt like overall it was a good place for one night, but not an extended stay. "

It's far enough away from the heliport that you aren't constantly disturbed by the noise, but still close enough to town that you can easily get to everything important quickly.
