Awesome boutique hotel. It is in town and within walking distance to plenty of places and there is a bar and restaurant literally next door with another restaurant and also a bakery behind the building. Parking is on the street, but there are a few spots, and we didn't have any trouble finding one the time we were there. We booked through a third party, and it ended up being self check in to the building and the room which we found very convenient (no waiting for a front desk person to finalize your reservation). The rooms are definitely a cut above standard hotel rooms. It kinda feels like an efficiency apartment.

Planned a stay for the weekend and it exceeded expectations. Super clean, updated shower and bathroom and thoughtful details like several flavors of tea to choose from and printed local guides. The check in and out was so easy and the location couldn't be beat. Walk out the door and you are on your way to local shops and restaurants. For all of the above reasons and price point, would absolutely stay here again.

Wow! This room was so clean. Like fresh clean perfection. Cannot recommend highly enough. Easy walk to all the sites. The entire facility was very well considered and I would stay again and recommend to anyone.

Nice quiet weeknight stay! Spotlessly clean second floor corner room, generously sized with a large bathroom and great shower. Parked on the street right out front. Walked a short distance to charming downtown for breakfast. Good communication about access.

Great boutique hotel with amazing value. Really cool spot with great location. Restaurant downstairs (we didn’t eat there) which is awesome, as well as lots of other options very near. Lots of shopping nearby as well. The rooms are quaint but well equipped. If I had one critique, the tv signal wasn’t great, but it is hardly an issue. We will definitely stay here again next time in town.

While en route, my car broke down, and I ended up booking an impromptu stay at The Escape. Despite the unplanned nature of my visit, it turned out to be a very positive experience. The check-in process was entirely self-service, with the entry code and room details sent via message. I appreciated the convenience of this self-help setup. My 10-year-old daughter mentioned she had the best sleep she’s ever had at a hotel, thanks to the incredibly soft mattress. However, there was a pretty large hole in the sheet, which almost led me to rate the stay lower. Still, my daughter encouraged me to overlook this minor issue, given all the other positives. Overall, a great stay! Will come back for future trips to the area.
