The staff was extremely friendly & helpful at check in. The area was exactly what me & my partner needed for a music festival. The venue, bars, & other restaurants were all walkable. You do pay $25 for parking a night if you don’t want to search for one on the street, but I thought it was worth it!

The room was adequate for the stay but I feel wasn’t worth the money we paid for the night. It was clean but a bit run down. It is in the heart of little Italy so it’s walking distance from farmers market , restaurants and shops. The staff is really nice ! Which was the best part of the stay!

For a person with a dairy allergy, breakfast was non-existent. I also have to drink decaf coffee for a different issue and there wasn't any available at the breakfast counter. The rest of the stay was good.
