The location was excellent, however, the hotel is very old and in need of some major upgrades. The bathrooms are very old and tired. The wifi is terrible. Overall, the bathroom did appear to be clean, as well as the bed sheets.

The Grand has a terrific central location, close to many of the signature tourist destinations and theaters. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The only criticism I have is that my wife and I stayed for one week and The Grand charges extra if you want to have towel service and your room cleaned every day. Otherwise, they have different charges for different levels of service. Not very cool if you are spending a lot of money and are staying a week.
