Let's start with positive impressions. The hotel has very nice foyer, friendly front desk and good location. Our room was spacious with many comfort points like the bed and armchairs. Convenient table and office chair, universal plug. Bedsheets were clean and pillows comfortable. Now the negative ones. Awfully slow Wi-Fi that kept disconnecting. The toilet smelled urine. The seat was missing a screw and the other screw was barely holding it, with yellow stain (most probably dry urine). The sink water was evacuating very slowly, because the drain pipe was squished In several spots. I reported the problems (except the smell thinking it was just an omission) to the front desk and was promised to have the problems fixed. When we came back in the evening nothing was done. The toilet seat or the floor were not washed.

Our room had an internal view of the air conditioners, but we didn't spend much time in the hotel. The room was clean and well kept. Beds and pillows are firm, but comfortable. Bring earplugs, though, (which we always do) because the walls/doors aren't as insulated as US hotels. They have a designated no-parking area in front of the hotel so that Uber rides were easy to get into and out of. There were lots of restaurants/activities around the hotel and were easily within walking distance. Enjoyed the breakfast, Hot scrambled eggs and ham, warm mini-french toast and waffles. Cold cuts and cheese, fruit salad, pastries, quiche, and a wide selection of juices. They also had hot milk at the coffee station and a bowl of chocolate powder to add to the milk or coffee. The neighborhoods around the hotel looks rundown by US standards, with litter and graffiti, but that's not really specific to this hotel, it's pretty widespread in the downtown area. Reminded me of the more industrial areas of European cities and very much like San Francisco. Enjoyed our time there and would return, especially for the price.

Este hotel estuvo muy agradable el que, sin duda, recomendaría. Las instalaciones son sobresalientes, todo está impecable y es estéticamente muy agradable, con un diseño que invita al descanso y la admiración. El desayuno merece una mención especial por su variedad y calidad. Sin embargo, la única gran desventaja es la conexión an internet, que es muy lenta y poco confiable para los q nos hospedamos en los cuartos al fin del edificio.

O quarto tem uma cama maravilhosa, o ar condicionado aquece bem, a banheira muito boa também. Como pontos negativos seria o estacionamento pago (17 dólares por dia), a limpeza do quarto que deixou a desejar (tiravam as toalhas e não faziam reposição, precisávamos pedir) e também a qualidade das toalhas (bem velhas e puídas). Gostamos da nossa estado mas esperávamos mais de um hotel 4 estrelas.

Serviço noturno [cozinha] precisa melhorar.

Ótima localização, recepcionistas atenciosas e dispostas a ajudar, quartos confortáveis e limpos. Sentimos um pouco de má vontade por parte da cozinha no horário noturno, parecia que não gostavam do que faziam, pois quando pedíamos as coisas, sempre estavam de cara feia e mexendo ao celular e nem se quer respondiam o boa noite dado às mesmas, largavam o celular e iam fazer com má vontade. Fora a catinga de cigarro ao falarem. Um dia ao pedi o cardápio para ver as opções me me negaram alegando que comer na rua era a melhor opção, ou seja, por preguiça.
