NOTHING AS ADVERTISED
This hotel is advertised as a boutique hotel, but it is nothing as advertised. The hotel can easily be seen as a cheap renovation of an old dirty motel. The furniture and carpet is in desperate need of cleaning, upholstering, or outright gutting. The vibe is nothing of European quality as advertised. I felt so nasty in this run down, upgrade of a motel. Then the clerk was patronizing in a manner to which she told me the room I would be getting is “not like the picture I saw on the internet,we gave you an upgrade of that room.” Oh, there is NO ONSITE barking, only valet for $45 nightly for a rundown motel room. I faired better by finding street parking using the meter for my one night stay. I tried to not let this ruin my experience of the CB concert!
