Not so good at all

Well, my stay including the check-in was not so good. I asked for a room on the first floor. They didn’t have any. They said it’s a short flight of stairs. It wasn’t the corridor leading to the stairway was outside. The stairs were not in good condition and my Room was as far from the entrance as could be. The security lock did not work, and there was a bag of garbage in the room left by the former residence. And when I told the clerk in the morning after waiting a few minutes for her to appear, she didn’t seem to take it very seriously

This is a local hotel that we passed often, but never has the need to stay for we lived in the area. We were closing on our home and needed a place to stay for one night. The Whitney inn was perfect! We booked the king room which was both spacious and super clean. It seems it has been remodeled recently. The bed was amazingly comfortable, the room size was huge and the bathroom was super spacious and overall a great stay at the Whitney inn.
