My stay was okay, but not quite what I expected. The hotel has charm, but the room looked different from the photos, the check-in felt more like an Airbnb experience versus a charming, historic bed and breakfast. Not a bad experience, just not the right fit for me. Good for travelers who don’t mind quirks and a more self-service style stay.

No staff, I thought I booked a boutique hotel, not some sort of Airbnb type rental. No one on premises, no elevator, had to lug my luggage up three flights of stairs. No instructions on how to heat the room, noisy street noise even though they had earplugs. Cute room, but thin walls, heard the couple next door arguing in the middle of the night.

i loved the room itself but having no actual staff on site and finding parking made it very inconvenient, the area the hotel is in does not feel safe. it would be nice to have an available wet bar option in room i had to walk the neighborhood late at night after the concert i went to and i felt it was very unsafe .

DON'T STAY HERE!!!

I don't normally review but feel I need to warn people not to stay here. My daughter and I were on the 3rd floor facing Colfax. We did not feel safe due to all the homeless out front and night time activity. The pictures on the website are not accurate. It is a rundown nightmare. Outside is totally covered in ivy and the windows as well making it dark in the rooms. The carpet is dirty and ripped. Upon arrival in our room, the first thing I noticed was the dirty bathroom. It had dark long hair all over the floor, a used toothbrush and razor in the shower. The carpet had not been vacuumed, the table was broken and two of the lights did not have lightbulbs. The coffee maker had old coffee in it with mold growing and the dishes in the cupboard were not clean. I have never been in such a dirty dark place. Way over priced. I would pay another 100 a night to stay downtown.
