Very close to the central area, within walking distance, and the school is also a straight line away.

Spent a couple of days for my son’s graduation so we only slept there. Place has a lot of character and is close to Shattuck. Bring your eye mask if you are staying in the primary bedroom because it is very bright all night long. Great water pressure. Worked well for our family.
