Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff was very friendly. They have a complementary uber if going to the medical centers. I loved the uniqueness of the hotel. The third floor hall was mesmerizing with the tall ceiling. The room was nice sized had a coffee maker, bath amenities, but only towel set for one person. The bed was clean and comfortable, but the bed frame and chair needed to be deep cleaned or replaced. What bothered me the most was that there were blood drops on the floor next to the shower and on the tub. Can’t tell if the ones in the tube was rubbed off or rinsed off broom the shower curtain dripping. Our room didn’t have a bad odor like some reviews said.

It was ok. I stayed for 2 nights and didn’t realize the bedcover had blood on it until late the second night. I was too tired to call anyone. Then I saw a bandaid in the shower drain. I mentioned this to the front counter as I was leaving. The breakfast was the same as all the other hotels. I thought being a boutique hotel it might be a little different and fresher by the reviews. Then the bar was closed on Monday night… that’s kinda why I picked the hotel.
