We stayed a week. The property is tired and old. The beds were very uncomfortable and with lopsided mattresses. The shower stall leaked water. The shades did not cover the windows completely. One of the worst hotels we ever stayed.

Excellent, but cleaning not satisfactory
Location is excellent and the room was spacious, comfortable, and well lit. The only problem was some parts of the room had not been cleaned well. For example, on my last night I dropped my phone down the side of the bed, and here discovered lots of dust, hair, a used cotton bud, and a cigarette butt…

A great location. We found the place stingy on amenities, including having no cups or glasses in the bathroom, and only two paper cups for two days and two people.

Nice place but parking is not clear - Beware
Great area to stay. Centrally located in a safe neighborhood accessible to key local destinations. The place was very clean and checking in and out was very simple. However, ation is terrible. No clear communication at all regarding parking and parking is handled. Clear instructions would be very valuable in this case. You have to use nearby parking garages which are anywhere between five and 10 minute walks. Which is fine, as long as that is disclosed. Nowhere either in the fine print or in the print, does it state that. The only thing it states in the parking section is That it is “street parking - paid”. Very unclear in fact it’s pretty obvious that they didn’t give any further instructions on parking. That is all it says. When this was brought to the attention of the local staff, they lacked any compassion and simply stated “it was in the disclaimers in the listing” (I.e. fine print). We’re now stuck with a $60 parking ticket.

Lots to say and enjoy about the location. Communication is a little challenging. Tv did not work and was almost 24 hours before someone at the property attempted to address. The app is also not my favorite . But that’s the only negative if that is even negative. Really like the place it’s Comfortable, great location, perfect for a long weekend couples trip. Would recommend!
