Outside was terrible, lots of broken glass in the parking lot around hotel but luckily parking was underneath the hotel and was fine. Lobby and room were great but remote control was sticky. Complimentary breakfast was great! Room and sleeping conditions were clean and comfortable! Staff was very friendly and accommodating!

A good stay

I was here for a weekend trip visiting old friends. The hotel was directly across the street from a park, very convenient for surrounding restaurants. No frills but enough to become my go to hotel for future visitations.

Overall not horrible, but pick somewhere else

Over priced compared to surrounding hotels for what we got. The beds and pillows were hard, NO soundproofing and the windows were so thin it sounded like they were open. Had to pay for parking in the absolute worst tiny one lane underground parking. Getting into a spot took me 10 minutes with all the maneuvering I had to do to avoid the poles, and getting out isn't much easier since you risk side swiping the same poles

Nice, clean room with excellent view, hotel is in a good location. Unfortunately the room airconditioner was very noisy, luckily it didn't bother me but it would be troublesome to many customers.

The outside and hallways are not very welcoming. Hallways have drop ceilings and smell like cleaner and perhaps smoke. There was a very light covering on bed but room was pretty nice enough
