No stairs that were convenient to and from the lobby. Only one working elevator which was sketchy. Bed sheets had too much plastic. Also there were a few termites in our room.

The location is amazing! The parking is expensive we paid for a parking garage in close walking distance through a third party app. The elevators took a bit since one was down, but it was fine. Free breakfast was average, there were hot options which was nice. This is a place you stay for location for sure!!

Hotel was in a great location but 40$ crappy parking per night in a random basement was not it. Also the elevators are in service and not working very well or fast. Hotel is very loud and noisy during the day/night because of the nearby train station and you cannot avoid the sound. Breakfast and baked cookies were good though.
