Very nice hotel in a super convenient area. Parking was a bit annoying as you have to figure it out yourself but we lucked into street parking right out front that is free overnight. The rooms are quite small but very nice and love the decor. Just make sure to bring your bathing suit! We deeply regretted not being able to use the outdoor heated pool.

The only things I will mention are these; The first night I stayed in a room that faced the same direction of the entrance and a very noisy street, many vehicles passing and revelers. The next day the staff were very helpful to relocate me to a quite room. The only other remark is the pillows are hard and too thick for a skinny soft pillow guy like me. Sorry one more comment, I know alot of effort has been put into details but the rooms are somewhat over priced, I will consider other options next time.

We loved our stay at the Dean! Great location, very walkable to all of the restaurants and shops. Customer service was also superb. The only downside was trying to find parking as they do not have a dedicated parking garage/lot.
