The room was very large with newer carpeting. Room was very bright in the morning. I wish they had a way to block out the bright morning sun. Maybe darkening blinds. Otherwise, I was happy with the stay.

Staff was not very responsive. Never responded to text messages and that was the only way to get ahold of anybody during the week. The weekend staff (Saturday) person was helpful but she was the only person that was. Wedding planning personal was unhelpful as well.

Did the job! A cool 3 min walk to SAFE convention

We stayed at the Sterling for a business trip for conference at the SAFE convention center. It was a cool 3 min walk to the conference wc was my primary reason for booking. It was also relatively short walking distance to Immortal Coffee and our partner's office for a convening. The front desk was responsive when I reached out and provided everything we needed to both check in/out and send reimbursements to our finance team. Overall good stay but if you want more fancy and concierge would likely recommend elsewhere.

Very cute building! Loved the decor. It's in a very convenient location to visit downtown and midtown. It was easy to check in and out via phone. There was no microwave or table in the room and there was plenty of space for both.
