The hotel is situated in a bustling location, perfect for exploring downtown with various dining options within walking distance. The rooms were average, but the housekeeping staff could improve, and the pricing seemed a bit high for the value offered.

Rooms

6.0

The rooms were average, and I found mine next to the elevator, which was a bit noisy. There was a mildew smell in the room, which was not pleasant. Overall, for nearly $400, the room wasn't anything special.

Service

The staff at the breakfast café were super friendly and very knowledgeable, making the mornings enjoyable. However, I noticed some of the front door staff smoking, which wasn't very professional. Additionally, the police were rude to one of the hotel employees, which was disappointing.

Location

The hotel’s location was fantastic, as it was right near the lively 6th street with all its entertainment options. You could easily walk to numerous downtown restaurants and nearby attractions, although it could get noisy from the bars on 6th street.

After experiencing a backed-up sewer smell in one room, the dining experience was a relief with fun and tasty food options in the bakery/cafe. The miso soup was a standout delight. However, there were some limitations about the internet and breakfast.

Facilities

The facilities were adequate, but nothing extraordinary. The absence of notable amenities or services made the value for money aspect questionable.
