It was really convenient to walk most places. It's a loud street, so I wouldn't recommend for those trying to get to bed early, but great for night owls. Rooftop pool was nice. Bed was comfy, pillows were comfy, had everything I needed. I would stay again. I had a little sticker shock at the $400 deposit required at checkin, but I probably didn't read the fine print. Really, the only downside was that the first night, my room smelled pretty strongly like weed, but by the second night it was fine.

The area is crowded at night. And the valet parking for the hotel is 65$, extremely expensive. The hotel is nice, but the area is not.

The hotel was beautiful. The lobby and bar were great as well. But we were on the 3rd floor and were unable to sleep almost all night. There is a bar next-door or above the hotel and our walls were shaking from the music, and the noise was so loud we could not fall asleep. Went down to the hotel lobby and talked to guest services, but the hotel was booked, but they were able to compass for parking.
