We had a wonderful stay at The Annex. It was for one night as we were in town for a show. Check in was a breeze due to the kind and efficient staff. Our room was amazing! We listened to some great records while getting ready to go out. Also enjoyed a drink in the cozy lobby/bar area after dinner. We'll be back. Thank you to everyone who made this stay so wonderful!

The Annex is a gem in the heart of the city. A welcoming, friendly, well-appointed facility with loft-style rooms. The showcase, though, is the staff who are professional, friendly and committed to excellence.

liked: bedding, w/c shower set up, inclusive vibe not so much: re: accessibility - no lift = steps, low toilet, no shower bench, no assist bars, platform bed in tightly confined space combined to made our room difficult for me to navigate due to my disability. Also must be very demanding for staff to change bedding. Nonetheless, we managed. Suggest w/c assist bars and a lift would be eligible for accessibililt grant funding $ support.
