8.4/10 Very Good! (388 reviews)
Parking was great. Great location to walk to restaurants and shops! Staff were very helpful but most of the time you had to phone them to come to the desk. It's not a hotel but more of an inn. Needs a paint job on a couple of sides. Tap water tasted terrible but they provided refillable bottles which must have been filtered which was nice. Coffee and tea were provided on the first floor, none in the room. It was very pricey for a tiny room. Only mirror was the bathroom vanity. Only trash can was in the bathroom. You need to ask at the desk for an iron or steamer. Walls were a bit thin. I can't compare it to any others in the district. We're not used to paying that much for a room but were there for a wedding and it was accessible to the bridal shuttle to the venue.
