The Drake Inn is a bit rundown - but it's what I expected of a 'vintage' hotel. The staff were very helpful - and Lennie (from housekeeping) was the best!

it's ok if you want a cheap place to sleep. We stayed in the hottub room. The bad: 1) There are water stains on the ceiling. 2) There is a plastic bag over the smoke alarm??? 3) All the the plugs in the room were too loose to hold a phone charger 4) The bathtub was missing the overflow cover 5) Bad over paint job 6) The noise from the traffic was loud 7) The trains seem to run all night and blare thier horns. The good: 1) Previous reviews said the area wasn't good. we had no issues with the area 2) 1 bus to downtown 3) friendly staff 4) staff was very accommodating 5) The rooms gets fresh towels every day even though it's a lower price place. 6) On site laundry and vending machines 7) Price in the vending machine was very reasonable. I would still stay here again based on price.

Booked the jacuzzi suite. Only 1 working outlet in the entire room. All but 2 lightbulbs in the room were inoperable. Couch was broken and cushions were ripped and dirty. Lamp cords ripped apart and taped together with duct tape, and also inoperable. Broken lamp was left in the floor by the window for some reason. NOT what I expected when booking the most expensive suite available. Don't waste your money. I didn't want to complain at the time for fear they'd move us to a worse room. Just don't stay here.

The room wasn't at all what was to be expected. It was dirty the shower and tub looked as if they haven't been cleaned. The door looked as if it's been kicked in more than once. The bathroom door had to be slammed closed. Overall it was just horrible. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone at all.

You get what you pay for. Lamps didn’t have shades or bulbs. Light switches everywhere but turned on nothing. Smoke detector on wall was covered with a plastic bag. All outlet covers were hanging off the wall with loose sockets so nothing could be plugged in. Toilet handle had to be held down for minutes before it would flush and then plug with barely anything in it. Front door when shut and locked you could see outside still from the entire right side of door.

Staff was AMAZING....room was HORRIBLE. The entire floor was lifted (like a bubble), bathroom was filthy, the door wouldn't close, and there was duct tape holding the bathtub faucet in the wall.
