Clean and the was comfortable. At the price I paid, I'm quite happy. No valet. Parking is costly, but, what do you expect. Spartan accomodations, but completely functional.

Very small hotel. Was okay as we didn’t plan on being in the hotel much either way but had no iron in room, they had no ice machine, and only 1 elevator that took forever. Room was tiny but in a decent area. We’re able to walk to many places. Wouldn’t stay again.

Excellent location in the middle of the city. The hotel is straightforward aka no fancy amenities (spa, restaurant,bar). Great for work travelers or tourist when the majority of the day will be spent out.

Everything was nice but beware the parking is not the best. You will be paying about $40 a day if you use the parking garage which is about a 4 minute walk from the hotel. There was also an extremely noisy protest going on during my stay which was understandably out of the hotel’s control.
