decent stay downtown

central location ample storage space musical reference black mold inadequate storage lacking shelves
The hotel is located centrally. It is very accessible and walkable to EVERYTHING, STILL the room is so quiet. The room had ample storage space to hang clothes and space to maneuver luggage. It had musical references on the carpet and room numbers.
The shower was speckled with black MOLD all over. THE room lacked any degree of storage. There were no shelves or hooks. I could not find anywhere to put my belongings that was out of the way.

fantastic stay with great perks!

perfect location nightly drink
The location was indeed perfect. Everything felt so nearby! the room was a good size and very clean, i loved that. i also really appreciated the drink we received each night. it was a very nice touch after a long day.
The room was rather small making it slightly difficult to manage with two carry-ons. Larger luggage would definitely be a challenge. the bathroom, while equipped with multiple shower jets, felt a bit cramped. I found myself bumping elbows frequently.

small room dust accumulation
My standard twin room was small. Maneuvering with luggage proved difficult. the lack of cleanliness i observed was unacceptable. dust accumulation was noticeable. moreover, the price did not reflect the value i received. I believe overpaying significantly.
