Although the hotel lobby was nice, it needed some up keep as well as rooms, garbages were over flowing in lobby, 1st room they offered us had a terrible cesspool smell. Hotel staff quickly moved our room which was better. But overall cleanliness of hotel was lacking and worn. They have a restaurant on site, but never saw anyone dining in it. Parking is only valet from a different company at the hotel and was very expensive. They do not tell you this when you arrive. Overall stay was pleasant.

I've stayed here many times and have enjoyed the hotel's vibe, location, and value. However, my room was subpar during my most recent stsy -- there was a musty aroma, a constant noise that couldn't be identified, and a view of trash receptacles. I asked someone at the desk if they put customers who booked lower rates through third parties in rooms that have not been updated and was told no and that room selections are based on availability. Not sure what that means, but all rioms should be updated.

Well appointed and clean room. Great bed with excellent linens. Checked in late evening, but desk clerk was warm and welcoming. Hotel was near full capacity and only available rooms were first floor, but offered to move me on 2nd day if desired… very thoughtful. Guests nearby were allowing their door to slam with every use - ergggh. Hotel room doors have auto lock feature that requires one to turn the interior door handle to close it quietly. Hotel has beautiful lobby with multiple comfortable seating areas throughout, some tucked away from main passage. Never had an issue finding street parking but you have to read the parking signs carefully and use the pay app.

The room was filthy and cold. There was a full set of someone's toenails on the carpet. It clearly hasn't been vacuumed. The AC wasn't working. After half dozen calls to reception, I was brought a tiny space heater. An hour later the room was still freezing so I had to move all my stuff to a smaller and noisier room. Staff were unhelpful and had to be repeatedly asked to do what they just said they would do. Horrible experience
