Weekend getaway
Check in was easy and we were greeted with some delicious cookies our stay was extremely satisfactory as the workers were very helpful and gave us what we needed with speed and accuracy. The pool area was a big favorite as it was clean and available for us to enjoy even in November. Had trouble connecting to Wi-Fi but other than that it was a really pleasant stay oh and parking was free

Decent stay, great location!
The hotel was easy to find w friendly staff. The bed was comfy, but we noticed there were no screen on any windows/doors. We got a room w a balcony- but couldn’t leave the door open because there wasn’t any screen for it. Things like that & a little extra updating of some door panels & floor boards, would really improve its presentation. That said, it was 1 block from the heart if little Italy/ it was great to walk to dinner & farmers market.
Their complimentary cookies were terrific!
We would definitely stay there again.

26 August 2024
The parking situation was insane, extremely narrow and hard to find good parking because of how poorly made the structure is. They charge 40$ for a sardin can of parking which is insane. The place is super crowded and felt cramped. Elevator takes forever and the restrooms have zero ventilation. The walls are thin and you can hear the people next door. Overall disappointed with this stay.

Normally, this hotel has consistent and reliable service and amenities, but this is what we encountered that drove the rating down:
1. Sewage smell in the restroom
2. Elevator 3 was out of order an entire day causing over 10 min wait time for elevators
3. False fire alarm 3x, 2x in the middle of the night causing sleep disruption
