Great room but the deposit fee was a bit fishy to me. When I got there they said everything was paid in full and I just had to pay the $450 deposit fee for 3 nights and I would get it back after checkout but I only got a fraction of that back. I was told only after I checked out about their destination fee where they charge you for their gym…..

Room wasn’t sound insulated at all. I could hear conversations and the unit above I could hear walking and stomping. Food was disgusting. The staff were great except for the front desk who took my email to use for reasons I did not give permission

The hotel is modern and very clean. Very dark but nicely decorated. It was probably just not a good fit for us. Not a cozy vibe. Too far from King Street. This is our 3rd hotel in Old Town this year and my least favorite but most likely personal preference. Nice staff.
