Quaint indoor courtyard with huge plants.
Parking was close but not visible.
“It was located just one block from the University, which had a folkloric dance the night we arrived ($3). It was close to the action of downtown, restaurants, etc., but not too noisy (and we were on the second floor). Our elderly parents enjoyed the atmosphere, as well.”
