It was so noisy that we left after the first night and moved to a different hotel. We were unable to get a refund but still purchased a different hotel because we didn't sleep at all. And on top of no sleep we had to pay $45 a day for parking. If you want to sleep do not stay here.

The staff was terrific. I was able to check in my room a little early & out a little later. That was very helpful to a weary traveler. My only complaint about the room would be the outside noise. I could hear people in the hallway, cars on the street outside. It made for sleeping a bit difficult. The carpets were a bit stained and bunched up but other than that the hotel was clean and comfortable!

Valet Service, $45 a day; car parked 20 feet in front of door. The lighting in the room was limited and dim. No amenities worth paying this much for a room. Disappointed at the 'lackluster' experience.

Good location but not worth the money

The location is great, but the rooms are pretty worn out (e.g., chipped doors, cracked counters, scuffed paint). That part would have been ok, but to make matters worse, the iron apparently had rust in the steam vents and ruined a white dress shirt with rust colored splotches, and when we returned to the hotel late after a wedding, water was leaking from the ceiling over the bed.

Loved the location

Very enjoyable 2 night stay. The room and bathroom were very clean, the bed was inviting. I didn’t find the pillow situation very comfortable. The Tv remote was iffy. The breakfast offerings were adequate and tasty. The staff were very polite and helpful.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The staff were amazing. Valet was easy and quick. The room was fine. There were NO USB ports anywhere in the room - we've stayed in cheap motels that have them - it made the room seem really dated. So nowhere to charge your phone. Also would have been nice to leave a card in the room or front desk to let us know there is no daily housekeeping. This is a minor thing, but irritating - there is absolutely nowhere by the sink to hang the hand drying towel. So the sink is outside the room where the toilet and shower are. There's no hook or rail - where do you put the towel? Outside was super noisy at 2 am - not really a complaint, we travel all over to major cities, but I can see someone absolutely hating the noise.

Overnight birthday getaway

Easy check in, kind staff. Everything was clean and comfortable. Parking across the street was easy. I would definitely not bother to valet unless there’s a big event, an extra $20 for them to park your car in the same parking lot you would park in anyway. Breakfast for 2 add on for $12 seemed like a great deal but it just gets you 2 items from the breakfast menu. We chose 2 items that totaled to $12 anyways so it didn’t change anything. Food was fresh and made to order though nothing I would write home about. Overall good experience, fairly priced in a good location worked out well for a little birthday getaway.
