The room itself was gorgeous, very clean and comfortable and stylish, and well equipped. Unfortunately our room at the front of the building was overlooking Darby St. To be fair, we stayed on a Friday/Saturday night, so the amount of loud, drunk pedestrians passing by was probably at it's worst (not to mention a very tonedeaf but enthusiastic busker parked directly under our window), but it was a very bad night's sleep. If I stayed here again, I would request a room at the back of the building! Were it not for the noise, the location is good with lots of restaurants etc in walking distance. Just not great for a weekend.

We enjoyed our stay and the staff were friendly. I was disappointed that our room never got cleaned or serviced across the three nights we were there. The room setups are interesting. If we would of known we would have asked our family to share same space. Because you have two rooms behind one main door it’s very loud. We had guests that were in and out late/early hours and with a baby it’s loud.
