Terrible pillows. Uncomfortable bed. Awful WiFi. Those pillows were strange. One side was soft, not too bad for one’s face, but the other side was like a bag of gravel.

Great hotel and perfect location

Great hotel, the staff held on to my bags when I arrived early in the morning. Check in took seconds when I returned and they even took my bag up to my room. Location is perfect; just a few blocks from the entertainment district. I'd stay here again.
