OK but a bit of an SRO vibe

Great location but the hotel has a bit of an SRO vibe. On checkin one guest was obviously high and the morning I left I was woken by a guest having a freakout. That said it's reasonably priced and right in the middle of little Italy with lots of restaurants nearby.

Very reasonable price in a great location to walk all over Little Italy, Harbor and Downtown. Rooms are clean and updated but tiny. Excellent value if you only spend sleeping time there.

Something different not a chain so it was a unique experience! I didn’t like the overwhelming smell of diffuser or scent in the lobby but it wasn’t in the rooms so that’s good

Horrible experience.

Horrible experience. Workers were too loud, which didn't allow me to sleep at all. The bed was extremely uncomfortable, and I found roaches in my room. Also, the parking was too far from the hotel. I'd highly recommend going somewhere else. I wish they'd do something to make it right.

Disliked: Room comfort

Very noisey hotel

The hotel states on the Hotels.com website that they provide daily housekeeping but when I got there I was informed that this is not the case, and they provide it on alternate days. I was upgraded to a better room, thanks to the manager Vince, which I appreciated but my room was street facing and very noisey, the walls of the hotel were like paper thin and I could hear the conversation happening in room next door, safe to say couldn’t get any sleep, on top of that, could hear street traffic in the morning. Every morning, the hotel staff would start banging on doors screaming “housekeeping” which was really annoying if you wanted to sleep in because they started this as early as 7 am. There was a very strong smell of bleach and such in the room which gave me a strong allergic reaction and I felt like I was sick all the while I was at the hotel, eventually, I decided to check out early. The bedsheets were scratchy as they were made of really low quality material. I didn’t feel comfortable in the hotel. The positive thing was the location as it was close to lot of restaurants, there was also a TV in the room with Netflix which made the experience tolerable.

Cute hotel in Little Italy. Close to the plaza , restaurants, dog parks and the waterfront. Parking is a bit of a hassle but we lucked out with timing and found a free spot.
