Reviews and Ratings
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were large, clean, and well-maintained, but there were visible traces of mold on the ceiling and even a bobby pin on the carpet during my entire 3-day stay. The service was truly an asset to the hotel, with friendly and cheerful staff offering perfect service. The location, despite needing renovation, was convenient and walkable to plenty of bars and restaurants. The dining options, though a great way to start the day, were limited and somewhat forced at an expensive set price. Overall, a stay here had its ups and downs.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms were impeccably clean and cared for, worth it on a rainy weekend. Although they were a bit dated, they were comfortable with everything working perfectly. The service was especially nice and helpful, although the staff could be more efficient. The location was fantastic, walkable to plenty of bars and restaurants, making it ideal for exploring the city. The dining experience was great and convenient.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were surprisingly spacious and comfortable, with a great view overlooking the river and lively bars on the other side. However, I found stray hairs in the room, and the elevators were quite dark and creepy. The price I paid was on the higher side, but the location and initial impression were impressive.
