The room was very nice and perfect for 2 people. I would stay there again if I had a male partner with me. I would not stay there alone. The area around the Hotel had many homeless people and/or drug addicts.

Disliked: Amenities
The room and facility was clean. The staff was friendly, but the rooms were not very big and there wasn't a lot of amenities for the price of the room. There was a very limited continental breakfast. There wasn't a pool or exercise facility and the room was pretty small.

The hotel is located just outside the downtown area, and as with all big cities, there were lots of people who seems to be down on their luck about the place. The only negative comment I have about our stay at the hotel itself is that when we arrived to check in at about 5.15 pm the front door was locked. We spent over 10 minutes waiting on the sidewalk with our suitcases trying to attract the attention of the staff inside by banging on the door, as the note on the door asked us to do. We didn’t feel safe at this point, after a 10 hour flight, it was not what we needed. When the staff member appeared and let us in, there was no apology offered. Anyway, the room was comfortable and clean. The small continental type breakfast was welcome, and the staff we met there and on checkout were polite and friendly. We’d stay again despite the issue we encountered when we first arrived.

Lovely room, most comfortable bed & linens, spotlessly clean, excellent boutique decor. Quiet. Limited selection of baked goods & coffee only in a.m. Decent restaurants within walking distance. Large unhoused population in surrounding blocks. Would stay here again.

Nice place, sketchy neighborhood

The hotel was very artsy and quaint but it is in an area of many homeless people. Our friends wanted to leave but we talked them into staying. I wouldn’t feel comfortable going out at night.

Staff was great. It’s wasn’t quite the same as pictured . It’s down the street from an area where people are smoking crack in plain sight. If you open the bedroom window shades you have a view of the balconies of the apt. Building next to you.

Lovely hotel near downtown

The staff was exceptional. The young man at the front desk was especially welcoming and helpful. The hotel was really clean, super well maintained and the rooms were large and nicely decorated. Would recommend.
