The location is great. Cool property, but not well maintained. Water main break & hot water heater leak was crazy.

Nice overall stay

Walking distance to parking garage, shops & dining. There were some technical malfunctions during our stay - key card issues and a scheduled water outage by the city - but the location was great, our suite was well appointed and clean.

Centrally located in the downtown area, quiet, to pull-out sofa in living room need to move a large heavy coffee table that doesn't have casters, which makes using the sofa bed very cumbersome

Amazing location!! Attractions, restaurants and shopping are steps from the front door. Tyrone at the front desk was friendly and helpful. We loved the 1 1/2 baths, good water pressure, full-size fridge, kitchenette, balcony, two-floor layout, charming hotel courtyard, elevator, comfortable bed and lack of noise. However, the room showed wear and tear and the carpet, sheets and toilet had not been cleaned prior to our arrival.

Location was perfect!

This is a great location! It’s walkable (within a mile) of everything in the city and just steps from the Market and restaurants. There were a few janky things like a post it note over the broken peep hole in the door, remotes for fans and lights were cheap and barely functioning. We found hairs (not ours) in the bathtub. Loved having a full kitchen and two floors. The bed was comfortable; the couch was not. We spent most of our days out and about so not an issue.

Absolutely loved this property. Beautiful inside and out. Excellent location, close to everything. Truly enjoyed everything about it. The staff was very welcoming and the room was gorgeous. Our room had 2 floors, and full kitchen, 2 bathrooms. Basically an apartment. Would definitely recommend and stay at again.

Location is good, Suite was clean. No real housekeeping, every three days. No continental type breakfast. Limited to sub par black coffee only. The hotel owner should hire friendly front desk person. The young woman at front desk should not work in that position. Rude, no hospitality at all, does not leave customer with a good impression of the hotel.
