The room was clean and tidy and perfect for the price. No breakfast included, but all restaurants, coffee shop and shopping closeby. It was quiet except the room doors are very noisy when they fall shut and the hotel started cleaning up the rooms fairly early the next morning, so it was loud in the hallway. Maybe

Great location. That is about it.

Be warned that this area is under construction and it makes dropping your luggage off and getting to this hotel a bit of a nightmare. The location is great BUT what is about the only good thing about this hotel. Very uncomfortable beds and I can sleep on just about everything. Front desk staff do not help you with your luggage which is normally not a problem for me but with the current condition of check in it would be very helpful. For the money you pay for this place I would hope for a bit better. Cannot beat the location if the rest are not important to you but also consider construction noise if you like to sleep in which we did not so no problem for us.

You do not have control of the room temperature. They have a ceiling fan and will give you extra fans tough they will blow hot air. I was not able to sleep and woke up sweating

Unfortunately, due to street construction, the parking lot was a challenge to get to and from. More of a concern was the unexpected noise from the street, until 3 AM. Nothing the hotel can do about that, but it did make for short nights of sleep. Otherwise, the folks at reception were great and it was a very nice, usable room, in a location convenient to almost everything in town.

Hotel has an excellent location but unfortunately they are tearing up the street outside the front door which makes it very inconvenient to get from the garage to the front door. Room was clean but street noise made opening the windows at night (no A/C) impractical so room was a little warm.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
They are simply charging a RIDICULOUS fee for this hotel. This is at best a 2 star hotel and they are charging 4 star prices. Rooms are tiny, beds are tiny, hotel is a minor 1970's upgrade. I've never had a hotel where I felt like what I paid was so completely out of step with what I received. Stay somewhere else - even paying a bit more for a proper hotel is worth it, otherwise you will feel incredibly ripped off.
