Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Pros: the staff were great, always so helpful. FREE bottled water and a variety of snacks in room, plus iced tea, lemonade, and popcorn in the lobby. Housekeeping was excellent. I stayed several days and my room was immaculate each afternoon when I returned from sightseeing. One cute touch - they change the rugs in the elevator by time of day- good morning/afternoon/evening. Cons: the carpets/furnishings have seen better days. Some look worn/stained. The bed was too soft for my liking, but might work for others. Overall, I would definitely stay there again. It may not be the prettiest, but everything else is top notch!

Didn’t feel it was a very good value for the money. Seemed misrepresented online. The room was tiny and not very nice. Nothing looked like the photos either.

Hotel location was excellent. Conveniently located to all major hubs of the city which made it very easy to walk to almost all destinations on our trip. Staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean, room was slightly out dated. Overall if you’re looking just for a room to sleep and a hotel in the best spot of the city The Godfrey is your perfect option.

Everything was clean, sleek and quiet besides normal city noise. Central to just about everything. The only thing that was unlucky was trying to get an elevator to and from our floor after our original checkin. I don't mind the stairs..just not fun carrying all the luggage down.
