Room was clean but run down a bit, which didn’t bother me, it’s an older building. The breakfast was nice! The people here are nice! The neighborhood did not feel safe! Lots of people riding bikes that looked sketchy. For people with no kids it would be perfectly fine… But the property did have tons of cameras and felt secure, and I never saw homeless people come onto property, but only stayed one night. Other than that the lobby was beautiful and the breakfast and the people who work here were all lovely!

Room was great, staff was wonderful, my only problem was when the WiFi gave out while I was in the middle of a movie... at about 10pm. & didn't come back on until about 430am. I did phone up the front desk & she said 'yea, that happens' . So, other than that it was a great stay.
