8/10 Good
"Very nicely updated and maintained older hotel. Liked the bold wall colors. Lakeview rooms are the best choice. Staff was great. No elevator in the building our room was in though and no kleenex in the bathroom either. Our room also could have used another round of insect control for spiders. Price was way too high also. Still would stay there again if price was more in line with competing properties."

"We loved our weekend stay at the Bicycle Street Inn! Great location, cute rooms, and a bonus we hadn’t even considered—bike storage! We brought our own bikes and were thrilled to find a secure, locked indoor storage area. The staff was super friendly, too. We’d happily stay here again!"
