Best location for walking everywhere in town, clean, pet friendly(park right across street), easy check in, easy building and room access via code and good staff responsiveness. 2 things to know - walls are thin and you can hear everything (people speaking loudly on street, large trucks driving by and noise from guests walking down halls, opening doors etc). Also water in bathroom sink never got hot (or even lukewarm) Elevator was not working and under repair but was not an issue for our stay

There's no one around to help when there's a problem, we couldn't even check in because no one sent the info like room number and door code, the room was overpriced and noisy, barely got hot water in the shower, someone puked on the curtains and no one cleaned it up.

The location is great. The spot for our car was an added plus. Room was nicely clean but there was a boxed female product left in the closet from last guest when we arrived. The skylights were very nice but one was broken. However waking up to hear and see the rain hitting the sky light was nice. Rooms were spacious and overall I did like the Inn. The lounge with amenities and snacks was a very nice touch. Our room mini coffee/bar was nice. Loved having the little refrigerator, that definitely was a plus. The check in was a bit worrisome. Mostly my fault I admit. I did not answer the call from the INN to reconfirm. The next day I did call back but spoke to no one so left a text message to reconfirm. I also sent two messages through Expedia and the Winston site itself. I kept waiting to get the access code. I got no call back. So I'd suggest if a quest doesn't know to call back, have a representative leave a detailed message to prompt a call back (message was a bit vague only asking to reconfirm reservation ) Also responses to messages, texts or a second phone call would be helpful. That was the hugest issue I had. I also know I share blame in it for not being able to answer the phone call when they first called. Would I stay there again, yes possibly. I now know the rules of the invisible check in/no front desk-so I'm sure it would go much smoother. Having said all that we did get in our room slightly early which earns big points. Thank you for the stay. The Taylor Family

Great location! Easy to walk to everything! Check-in was not super efficient. Due to no one being onsite, having to call and then wait for an email to get in is not super convenient. The touch keypad to our door did not work properly. We had to touch it up to ten times (every time we came in the door) for it to light up in order to put in the code. Then when we left our room it would not lock right away, we had to mess with the keypad again several times for it to lock. Maintenance was sent to fix it and it did work better for a day, but then started having problems again. The day we were checking out the elevator was having problems; making beeping noises and taking double the time for the doors to open and close and then for it to descend/ascend. The touch light switch in the bathroom would not work properly either. We ended up just closing the bathroom door so the light did not come into our room. Seems like a little maintenance is needed. Otherwise, it was furnished very nicely and the bed was comfy!

My less than excellent is about checking in. I was not emailed with check in info so stuck outside the door with no one answering the phone. It took too much time and effort to find out how to resolve this. When you don’t have an email for a customer, you should take other actions to eliminate frustrated customers trying to figure what to do.

The room itself was clean. The restroom doesn’t have any ventilation so a warm shower will fog up the entire room. The visual aesthetics were more exciting than other hotels. It’s located right infront of the park. Everything was walking distance. The exterior of the location wasn’t too nice since the nightlife people leave their trace behind. There was easy access parking. The elevators were not working when we arrive but they promptly fixed it when we left. The communication was fast and easy. Check in was easy, access to enter was easy. Interior was beautiful and exciting. I recommend staying on the second floor because we heard everyone walking around all night for the entire stay. I also recommend bringing your own blankets and pillows for comfort, their blankets are simple sheets and it gets cold at night. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

Invisible staffing has its ups and downs. Getting in was definitely an understated adventure/challenge but we also happened to check in on a farmer’s market night and naturally the farmer’s market is right in front of the hotel and parking lot. Overall good spot, but not for the tech-unsavvy.
