DON'T STAY HERE!!!

I don't normally review but feel I need to warn people not to stay here. My daughter and I were on the 3rd floor facing Colfax. We did not feel safe due to all the homeless out front and night time activity. The pictures on the website are not accurate. It is a rundown nightmare. Outside is totally covered in ivy and the windows as well making it dark in the rooms. The carpet is dirty and ripped. Upon arrival in our room, the first thing I noticed was the dirty bathroom. It had dark long hair all over the floor, a used toothbrush and razor in the shower. The carpet had not been vacuumed, the table was broken and two of the lights did not have lightbulbs. The coffee maker had old coffee in it with mold growing and the dishes in the cupboard were not clean. I have never been in such a dirty dark place. Way over priced. I would pay another 100 a night to stay downtown.

Arrived and could not enter due to need for a security code to open door, which they never sent. They sent one later on day of check-in I think, but that was too late. Had to reserve at the Sheridan for $$$. That sucks.

this place does not refund you even if they say they will! the moment i got there, there were homeless people all around the hotel. the air conditioning did not work. when i walked into my room, the bathroom window to outside was WIDE open, as if a homeless person had come inside! it’s also dirty inside. DO NOT stay here, just trust me on this.

Inside was cute, but the inability to come and go due to the homelessness and drugged out people caused us to cancel our second night. Cops had to be called just so could get into property. Was told to park vehicle blocks away because unsafe and no parking.

The hotel was good but the immediate area around it has a large homeless population but a minute walk off the road and you are in lovely leafy suburbs.

Dumpy spot

Checked in late after delayed flight and neither of the two door codes provided worked. We were standing at the front door and were accosted my a local drunk person. No person working onsite, luckily they answered the phone but weren’t really helpful… offered to cancel our reservation instead of fixing their mistake. Wanted to love the place with the old school charm, but room wasn’t really functional. No side tables, few outlets, tiny bathroom.

I thought my room was very nice and clean. My only reservations with the property was that the area was unsafe. If you walk a half of mile to the east where my son lives , the area is better. I would not walk at night alone in this area.

Nice space and relatively clean room. Do wish there was somewhere to hang towels and fix the leaky faucet in the kitchen. Struggled to clean plates as there were not cleaning supplies. Appreciated the amenities and I would stay here again! The homeless were a bit of a nuisance but manageable. But overall, a very pleasant stay!

Good stay, rough area

I booked this based off being close to a pre concert meet up at a local restaurant. The area around it was across the street from a bus stop. The area around the hotel was covered with trash and had a lot of unhoused people. No one bothered me, but I was a little uncomfortable walking back post concert by myself. My room had an ac unit which was nice but only drapes and with it being seconds from a brightly lit gas station, the curtains blocked the air, definitely need blinds instead. It worked for what I needed and was clean inside which is what the best you can hope for

The property is surrounded by homeless people and a is a little uncertain whether there would be a group of people sitting on the steps. There was no remote in the room - for my shower this morning I had to wait 7 minutes for hot water. Overall the room was clean.

The room was fine but there is no on site personnel. You get in while punching in a code at the entrance with homeless literally on the steps to the front door about 5 feet away. I moved to another hotel for the rest of the weekend. Moved to a Hilton Inn on Welton Street which was 1000 % better

Dont judge a book by its cover

Its a beautiful hotel, not fancy but definitely was a old Victorian home once upon a time. Bed was shockingly comfortable.
