I'd say the only one down fall I can actually say is the private rooms should offer a mini fridge for beverages and the property should address the locking mechanisms on all the bathrooms since it's considered co-ed.

The property is a bit dated and worn, but the staff work very hard to upkeep and maintain as very clean! Shared bathrooms always clean, although 1 night out of 4, there was no hot water. Vibes are great, very bohemian and friendly. Room was very basic but sufficient, with a wall AC unit, full length mirror, full sized bed with sheets and pillows, 1 towel per person, and 1 table. Super well connected with the streetcars and plenty of dining options within walking distance, although don't wander too far unless you know where you're going. Love Taj Mahal the house cat! Cheap and cheerful!

Vera and Lisa did their best to shame me into believing our room screw up was my/Expedia fault. Found my confirmation and showed room I selected was correct. Think they rented my room in hopes I couldn’t prove room I selected. Make double sure triple sure you print off confirmation and take with you. Expedia helped me find a different place but nite before NCAA championship cost $2000.If I were 18-21 yrs old this place would be great. I’m 71 and traveled with my 25 yr old granddaughter.
