The hotel was clean and nicely decorated, with a colorful and welcoming atmosphere. The elevators were unfortunately out of order during my stay, but the staff went out of their way to accommodate me with a 3rd-floor room instead of the 5th, which I really appreciated. The room itself was spotless, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. I especially loved the blankets — soft and cozy, not the stiff, papery kind you sometimes find in hotels. While there were some homeless individuals in the area, I never felt unsafe walking around. All in all, a good experience with attentive service and a great stay.

The elevator was broken, and they put us on the top floor. Refused to discount the trip. Breakfast closed a half hour earlier than they claimed. Stairs were never cleaned, and the outside smelled like garbage, barely a 2-star hotel.

Customer service was good. I did not receive a welcome gift as I saw the people ahead of me check in. The elevator was down and our room was on the 3rd floor. Not a big deal. Room was clean. It would have been excellent if it had a bigger fridge and a microwave in the room. The ice machine was also not working at the time.

We always stay here when we come for a concert at the Signal. Rooms are clean, nice open parking lot. Close to the Signal Venue. However, this time the elevators were down, and we had a room on the 5th floor. The breakfast has declined, No waffle maker, all carbs except for cold boiled eggs. No hot options except for bagels/toast unless you buy them to heat in the microwave. However due to location and cleanliness we will continue to stay here when we come for a concert.
