Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel itself excellent. Historical building well maintained and preserved. There is a very modest breakfast of coffee, donuts and croissants in the lobby. However, there are some issues with the surrounding area. The neighborhood is VERY sketchy with homeless people everywhere around the building. Parking is difficult to impossible and the hotel charges $57 per day for remote valet parking, for which you will have to wait 20-30 minutes to get your car. I recommend no car at all and taking a Waymo cab for a quick and cheap way to get around. I would stay here again
