What a delightful stay! The OMI really hit the spot for us. The location is perfect for exploring downtown, the cozy rooms and incredible bedding made us feel right at home. The service was top-notch, and the tasty breakfast spread was just the cherry on top. Only downside was the lack of a fridge in the room for leftovers.
