The front desk staff was so friendly and quick at check-in I got to my room fast I really liked the speedy service. The room was also very clean the linens smelled fresh. I appreciated the public transportation options the bus stop located directly outside the hotel made it easy to explore.

Convenient location with helpful staff

helpful staff convenient location water bottles comfy bed

The street car stops right outside THE front door which was convenient. The staff members were helpful with directions and information. Bottles of water were supplied in the room, I appreciated this. The bed was comfy, I slept well.

There was only one small desk in the room. More desk space would be useful.

the room was quite spacious and clean. the complimentary coffee in the lobby was a nice touch. the front desk staff was friendly and accommodated my request to arrive a bit early.

The street outside felt unsafe at night. the breakfast was quite limited. i could hear a lot of noise from the street since my room was near the bus stop. I could not open the window.
