1. Breakfast in the adjacent restaurant was mediocre and overpriced but luckily there are lots of alternative not far away.

"Comfortable room, great location " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/23/2012 Vote

2. A couple of quibbles: the TV offerings were primitive -- no Comedy Central, for example, and only an analogue signal for the local PBS station that made it too fuzzy to watch; the toilet/shower room was way too cramped; breakfast at the adjoining Firefly restaurant was overpriced (walk two blocks to the Luna Grill and Diner on Connecticut).

"Great hotel with some shortcomings. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 8/22/2011 Vote

3. It is relatively speaking perhaps a bit more than the hotel, but not overpriced for for the type of restaurant it is.

"Personable hotel and great value for money " Read full review on TripAdvisor 8/3/2009 Vote

4. I did order breakfast the first morning I was there, but at nearly $16 with tip for a continental style breakfast, I thought it was way overpriced, in fact, the entire roomservice menu was beyond overpriced I felt.

5. Fortunately, also close to Starbucks, Krispy Kreme and some good full breakfast cafes, as the breakfast at the hotel was only so-so and very overpriced with super slow service.

6. A little overpriced for what you get, but again, the service was very good & staff were friendly.

7. Other 'minuses': The overpriced breakfast (although there are plenty of other options in the neighborhood) and the cost of overnight parking ($24/night.
