Full disclosure, I only stayed here because every other room in the city was over $1k per night because of a conference. Location was convenient. Spartan. No ice, no fridge, no safe. To its credit, the bathroom and shower were clean and comfortable. The shower had great pressure and hot water. The bed was hard as a rock, no side sleeping possible. Noway could 2 people fit in my “petit” room. The pull-down “desk” was barely big enough for my laptop.

not for solo females

if you are a FEMALE SOLO TRAVELER, DO NOT STAY HERE. The owner, who is also female ANNOUNCED my room number OUT LOUD at the front desk. out of all my travels, i have NEVER had any desk attendant shout out my room number. Although there was only 1 other male customer at the counter, it shows how careless she was. BEING SAFE means alot to me and it should to you as well.

Ronnie was an excellent help in getting us checked in, providing parking, dining, & local sites info. The female clerk working the morning of our check out was indifferent and not pleasant. Although conveniently located, the cost of the parking garage with ‘valet service’ was ridiculous! They wouldn’t even bring our car to the front of the hotel. I had to leave my 89 y/o mother waiting in the lobby while I retrieved the car. $70 for 2 nights was too much!
