We had a hard time getting in the building, but the staff was very helpful. The room was nice, clean, and quiet. We loved the pool table.
Comfy room, great showers. Was nice to have small balcony.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The room was ample and clean. But the walls and ceilings are not sound insulated and you can hear your neighbors left, right and above. There is no furniture to place folded clothing.
Everything about the hotel is 4 or 5 stars. The problem is the location. Not many great eating spots nearby and lots of homeless people outside. Makes it hard to go or a walk or walk further out to eat.
Extremely noisy as it is on a high-traffic street and not as safe as I am used to. The rooms are tiny, maybe fitting for students who are trying to save money but not fit for families.
Woke up to a homeless person outside of my window screaming at 7 am. It also would be nice to have water and slippers in the room to not walk on the carpet which is dark to hide stains.
