4/10 Fair

Unfortunately, not what I expected.

The hotel room wasn't very clean the nightstand in between the beds had several coffee stains and the lamp shade had food stains. The room felt a little eerily and the nightly rate was entirely to high with additional unnecessary fees given the room quality. We ended up checking out and making other last minute arrangements.

Almost a great stay

A real funky downtown hotel with a brilliant music soundtrack. Rooms are comfortable. It’s safe and a great vibe surrounding the property. Two downers though…….. 1. No internet. You have to pay. Very inappropriate for 2025! 2. Not being able to book breakfast for Sunday. You have to go through a third party and it doesn’t start until 8. Really bad situation. Breakfast wise, go to the Sofitel across the street. Starts at 7am. Otherwise the stay was good

The furniture and carpet could stand to be updated. There was a lot of noise from the room next door so better soundproofing is needed.
