Very clean and comfortable, well placed.
We had a suit. Had everything we needed for our stay. The suits are not rooms with a view and quite dark but overall a good bass and very clean.
Nice pool in the adjoining hotel had a lively vibe with bar.
Very handy to hop on the free tourist bus to get to anywhere in downtown.

Enjoyed our stay.
Great location, free, on-site parking, friendly staff, very clean, we had a very nice dinner at the taproom next-door, which is part of the same hotel. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. The room is very small, especially the bathroom, but we were only there for one night. I probably would not recommend it for long stays.

Great gem of a hotel!
Lovely inn style hotel in the “Burg.”
We really enjoyed our stay. The Avalon was the perfect location for our trip. It was central to all the things we wanted to do. We felt safe and the area was clean and quiet. The front desk staff were super friendly and detailed perfectly all the amenities the Avalon had to offer. Parking was easy, room access was easy, room was clean and cozy. We’d definitely stay again

Everything about this hotel was lovely - the staff (thanks for all the water bottles!), ambiance, helpful assistance, and it was ever-so-clean with amazing linens. I would, without a doubt, stay here again in the future.

Cool, clean and unique aesthetic
I've stayed here before. Really nice and clean. Very comfortable. Feels safe. Nice aesthetic. The free water bottles is cool. Also the fact that they do a courtesy call to see when you're checking in to let you know where to go after hours is great and top tier! Would chose this place any day!

The price is great and the staff were helpful. The room is a bit dated and the air conditioner and ceiling fan made noises making it a challenge to get good rest.

Great location
Really enjoyed our stay. We had to be in the area for appointments and it was very convenient and had a lot of amenities I was not expecting. The free parking and pool were great perks! I will say the hallways and noise level was a bit loud, didn't seem much in the way of noise prevention. If we stay again we might try a higher floor to see if that helps.
