Hotel is within 2 blocks of the Piazza in Little Italy and if you don't drive, very convenient to mass transit trolley system. Jerry at the Front Desk was very helpful in checking me in and also at checkout. Got to my room 2 hours ahead of check-in.

Everything about the experience was just kinda “meh”. My key cards had to be reactivated everytime I left my room. Not enough towels or trash bin in the room. I did like the heated pool. I’d stay there again, but if it’s the same experience, I’d want to pay slightly less.
