The staff was amazing the hotel is nice it was dated and you could tell it was dated the only problem I had was you could hear the neighbor all night long talking on his phone because the walls are so thin and you could hear everything outside on the street also you could hear dragging of chairs over the room all evening until the bars closed.

Very annoying that the only parking available is like 2 blocks away and you have to pay for it. If you’re had a heads up it was like this I would not have been so annoyed. Also none of the outlets worked, there was extension cords everywhere so unsafe and not up to code
