6.6/10 (1,000 reviews)

This hotel is big and set in the middle of a busy block. The noise was a bit bothersome at night but I used a sound machine so I was on. They are doing a lot of remodeling and it does look very nice. Our room was brand new with all new furniture on the balcony and it’s tastefully done. We did have to pay $20 to check in early at 1pm, even though it seemed there were many rooms available and no one was there at all, I was still thankful to be able to get in the room. I felt for the price they could’ve included at least a continental breakfast. They do have a small store in the lobby, but it’s quite expensive. This might be good for a big group because the pool area is large and nice, and there are lots of loungy places to gather and enjoy company.. If you’re having a big party this would be great. You could be loud and it would fit right in with the neighborhood.

The staff was great, however the pool hours were odd. 10am to 9 pm. The only coffee on site was at the front desk area, which opened at 9 am. The room was good. However the kitchenette had no dishes, not even glasses to get water.
