Easy check-in, nice room. A little bit confusing at first because there are two different buildings and we had a little trouble finding where our room actually was, but they were very helpful at the front desk and sorted it out for us. All in all, it’s a nice property. Very quiet and clean. My only complaint is that as a tea drinker, there is no way to simply make hot water in the room. The coffee maker only works if there is a Keurig pod installed. They do offer Jasmine tea pods but if you’re looking just to make a hot water to use your own teabag, you’re out of luck

When booking a hotel on orbitz, I expect a normal check in experience, not one that is contactless, with multiple text messages from an unknown number and keys left in lock boxes. The building itself was unique and older, and fine for the price point. Tub and sink were cracked, and showing their age. But overall was about what I expected, and convenient location.
