Super location and nice quiet hotel. Missing some amenities, perhaps due to pandemic issues. No valet parking, no fridge or hair dryer in the room . Staff was very accommodating and hope they survive the pandemic. Would consider staying again.

Bad experience
No one to help with the luggage, The lady at The front desk was nice but I asked for a room with refrigerator,she said couldn't give me one with two beds . The room was awful !! Even they had some renovations I got very bad room with lots of damages ! the beds seems clean )the only good thing about it No place to hang the towels The carpet was so dirty The light was not bright enough Really hated when first entered,but my dad said we only needed it for the night let's sleep and rest !! Which was hard because of the bang sounds most of the time !!! Over all was bad experience for us I've been to soooo many hotels around the world ,and this is the second worst room we been in!!!

8/10 Very Good

Nice enough but hoped for better
Room lighting options were poor. Even with every light on the room was still dark. Bedside lighting was a lightbulb screwed into wall with no way to turn on/off without getting out of the bed. Room was clean though rather spartan. TV options way too complicated to figure out without dedicated studying - never did figure out how to get plain network TV so we could figure out what was going on (weather-wise) in the area. Good location for where we needed to be, quiet area but close to Water Tower etc. Found reasonable parking options through SpotHero.

Adequate stay
The hotel was very clean. The bed was comfortable. I was surprised there was no refrigerator in the room or coffee maker. I thought these were standard, but apparently not. The sink in the bathroom was VERY small, low and looked like it was hanging from the wall (slanted downward). The front desk was helpful when I had a question about a place to go for breakfast and how to get transportation.

Great location, walking distance to shops and restaurants. The bathroom was large with a make up counter and mirror. The beds were very comfortable.

We rented a city view King room to be given a view of a building. Once we went in we also noticed the walls had paint coming off the walls, the wooden floors sounded once you walked in the room, there was a soda cap under the bed, and the sheets had a hole in them. My partner and I tried to make the best out of it as we were celebrating our 3 year anniversary, but were still very disappointed since we had high expectations for this hotel based on the reviews.
