Check in was quick and easy. The room was nice, a little small. The bathroom and shower were big. Everything was clean. The coffee maker cord was short so you had to unplug it to fill water and put the pod in, was a little annoying. Location for us was great.

Great little hotel in a perfect location in the City. Fantastic staff and a cool little bar/ restaurant. Would have like a fridge in the room but otherwise can’t fault it.

Great place to stay

We enjoyed our stay a lot. Great design, great location & we loved Carlotta’s, the bar/restaurant in the lobby. Some minor hitches with requests—we wanted to get the lotion in the bathroom refilled (it took several days & 3 separate requests for this to actually happen), get/keep an extra bath towel in the room, etc. We finally went straight to the housekeepers, who were very nice.

The room was beautiful surprisingly spacious for it being a “petite king room”, and I loved the restroom. Staff was great and they give you a complimentary drink! The only downside was the parking situation and our restroom could’ve used a mop. Overall 8.5/10

Hotel Breakfast

The hotel stay was great. I stayed for one night. On check-out day I went to the restaurant for breakfast. I asked the waiter if it was complimentary and he stated that it was. Then when I was done eating, he presented me with the tab. I'm not sure what the mix-up was but I went ahead and paid the bill. I've never had that happen before.

close to downtown - my room was next to the elevator and it was very quiet. It was clean and the staff was very nice. They did charge a $20 fee that I wasn't expecting when I checked in.

Decent hotel for the price. It’s close to public transport, so it’s easy to get around as tourists. Crostini & Java is a great breakfast spot nearby. The coffee at A Cup of Joy sucks. Front desk was very friendly.

Resort fee?!

A nice little hotel. Hallways are narrow as the building is older. I was quite surprised by the "resort fee" charged at check in. When I inquired about it I was advised it covered things like bottles of water, WiFi and fitness facilities, of which there was an exercise room only. I commented that such amenities are standard now and was rewarded with a free drink that I guess cost me $20. Also, some glasses in the room would be nice. And my coffee maker didn't work. I did advise the front desk about that.

This is a lovely hotel. Nice bar. Nice decor in rooms. The bad part was the check in. I was told that I would be charged a $20 amenity fee for a water and granola bar (that I did not want) and for a complimentary glass of wine in addition to the $20 resort fee. How is the free glass complimentary if you have to pay for it? The person who checked me in, Liam, was not kind or helpful in explaining this charge. Then, we got our keys and went to our room- but someone was already in the room. So I went down 6 flights to get the new keys, even though we were tired and ready to get to our room; and he was not apologetic. On the flip side, we were granted a late check out by the manager and that was nice.

Loved our stay, it was very clean and staff was nice. Food was great! Located in a good area close to many things. Did have to park down the street ($50) since hotel had no parking but other than that I would definitely stay again
