Very cool hotel. Rooms are smaller than normal hotel rooms, but it was perfect for us. We were out sightseeing the whole time, so we only needed a place to sleep! Service was great.

The lady at the front desk was a little snippy. The room was clean but very tiny. okay for one person. the bed touched walls on two sides and windows on the third. You had one side to enter. Close to the Bible Museum. If you just want something cheap, it is a good spot. The bed was comfy. I felt like a kid sleeping in a reading nook, but I still liked it okay.
