Location is obviously great, the front desk and staff have been very friendly and helpful but this place is really old, the shower feels like a prison and if your are tall you do not fit in. If you want to wash your hands you need to do it in the bedroom. The rooms and hallways feel like from the 70s or 80s. If you are into that go for it. There is ac in the room, however no button to adjust it. So whatever the temperature set by the staff, is what you have to use. I guess they are really just penny pinching... Because it got really hot in the room during the day at the beginning of May. On the upside its not that expensive with $200/night but if you pay a little more ($50 or $60) you can get waaaaay more pretty much close by. The pictures online look way better than once you get there. One can clearly see (once you are at the hotel) that they are photoshoped. Also, the shower head was super moldy... Take a look at the attached picture.

Price was good. Hotel room was clean, just old and very small. Not much room to walk around the bed. Interesting room layout…beds were in separate rooms with a door in between, would be good for a family wanting some privacy. Parking garage was a 2 blocks away and cost $38/ night. Lots of homeless people near garage, but no one bothered us. Room key cards stopped working every day, so we always had to get new key cards. But I got a good price on the room, so hard to complain.

Stayed at this location for 1 night and I deeply regret I did. While being historical, the elevators are non functioning and my party was forced to walk up and down 6 flights of stairs throughout my stay. The rooms were very small. The shower felt like something you might use in prison. Also before I called I asked about their amenities which I was told a rooftop bar is under construction but there was a lobby bar available. Upon checking in I saw that the lobby bar was closed due to Covid. Ice machines are scattered throughout random floors. No real amenities offered. After talking with front desk staff about the inconveniences of my stay I was told I’d receive 15% off the room charges which I felt was acceptable. However it’s been 7 business days and no charge reversal. I called front desk again and they told me to wait a few more days. Manager won’t answer or return any calls. It’s a shame if your not going to do what you say then why even bring it up. Save your money and book elsewhere who actually stand by what they say and don’t lie to you about compensation for an unpleasant stay.

Hotel is pretty old and rooms look tired. Our check in experience was pretty good but the lift was not working so we had to carry our luggage up 7 floors. Lift was back in service shortly after. Our room was ok. Bed was great. The toilet requires a couple of flushes to go down and the water does not drain out properly in the bath. I had to keep turning the shower on even after my bath to drain down the bath residue.
