Why should I stay with you instead of downtown?
We are only 1/2 mile outside city limits,  this allows us to charge only 6.225% in taxes, whereas all other lodging in town will charge you 14.6% in taxes.
We have a wonderful peacefulness with trains faintly in the distance, not blocks away.  Off-street parking is taking for granted here, and it is also lit.
