We were snowed in and felt so stranded and it was comforting to walk into a clean, warm hotel that had its continental breakfast still open late at night. Thank you for your hospitality.

Had a nice overnight stay at the Metropolitan Inn. Despite some construction going on in various rooms (remodeling and updated) and the run-down appearance in some areas, the room itself was clean, quiet and super comfortable. All basic needs were covered AND it was affordable - which is a huge plus in this day and age! It's not the ritz, but I was comfortable and would stay there again.

My room was spacious, very clean, and strangely enough so quiet (if you have your window closed you don’t hear anything despite being on a busy street-Temple Ave.). The staff was so nice and corteous. My only critique is that the exterior of the building could be improved.
