We stayed for a week at this property in mid August, 2025. We were a first floor room, so we didn't really take advantage of the balcony as it was really on the sidewalk. The area is wonderful, walkable to multiple museums, the park, and high end shopping. The shared living space was wonderful, and the breakfast was really an outstanding addition. Our room was a little beat, just little things primarily in the bathroom, but otherwise a really great space. Only complaint I could have is a bit of a sewer smell in the hall and room on some of the days, but this could have been beyond the control of the hotel--so I did not make a complaint. Staff up front weren't overly friendly, but absolutely willing to help when requested. It was honestly a great spot, and we'd stay again.
