The hotel was in a location with walkable restaurants and easy to uber to and from. It was clean and staff were helpful and friendly. The lower rating was due to the extremely small room and lack of sound insulation. It was VERY loud throughout the night. Impossible to sleep.

It was clean and nice in the lobby and so was the room. You can park on the street it pay $25 to park in a lot about a block away. The only thing I didn’t like was the sign the the towels. What towels you don’t use they don’t wash, but they could have been touched.

Booked this hotel for one night before a cruise. Very clean and perfect for my stay. There is no elevator, however, the staff will assist with taking the luggage up and down. I booked a room on the first floor, but was placed on the second floor. Very kind and professional staff. Definitely recommend this hotel!

Loved this hotel. Very clean. Minimalistic look. Easy check in system. Front desk staff was always responsive. I only stayed one night because I had an early morning flight but definitely enjoyed my stay. 1 con is the walls are quite thin, you can hear people coming up the steps, phone conversations, the works. But they give earplugs.
Lounging area.
Queen room.
