Great location - walkable to everything. Large rooms and great shower. Parking is a challenge only due to one way streets. Hotel only provides drip coffee with full paid breakfast, but coffee shop attached to lobby is good (small portions & pricey). Would stay again - good value for price.

The hotel is at best a 3 star. Rooms were not cleaned. Room was an attic. Location was great. Bed was ok, just couldn't stand up when getting out of one side because it was an attic with slanted ceiling. Staff was both good and bad. Three of the receptionists encountered were helpful and courteous, a fourth was not helpful at all. Would not stay here again.

My mirrors wee dirty, my sheets were soiled; and, when asking to replace them to allow for a hygienic sleep, I was met with inappropriate and unprofessional behavior. I had a VIP booking but didn’t receive the upgrade to my knowledge, and I was unrested before flying. It made for an experience that will make me very unlikely to return to this hotel for anything other than Brut. Will be speak with management at a later time, but I must catch my flight.

The hotel room was very clean, spacious and the bed very comfortable. Staff was welcoming and courteous. We are active seniors in our late 70s-80 and thought the bath was dangerous. The side of the tub is very high, the bottom very slippery and the shower sprays enough to make the floor wet. There is one safety handle near the faucet but none to aid you as you enter or exit the tub. Other than the safety of the bath we were pleased with everything else.
