Great value! Loved the easy check-in process and the decor. Location close to restaurants/bars, and Petco park. Only issue we had in our room was the A/C not blowing cold air and was very loud but they provided ear plugs. On our check-out day the A/C finally started to feel like it was working. Cleanliness was good but cleaners missed a questionable food stain. Overall charming hotel but slightly missed a few marks.

Very clean except for hair in the shower drain. Because there was no staff I wasn’t worried about my things being taken. Much cheaper than other hotels. I would definitely do this again. It was like staying at a friend’s spare room. Only thing I missed was an ice machine, but the water cooler/coffee maker was right outside my door!

Very convenient for Gas Lamp Quarter & convention

The location was good; about a 15 minute walk from the convention center. The room was very clean and the area was quiet overall. I spent some time on the rooftop lounge which was done nicely. I think the only thing I would have personally preferred would be having someone at the front desk. Not that the virtual front desk was bad at all; it was perfectly fine and convenient when you want to be an introvert. All of my questions were answered right away by the virtual front desk. I think I just like the idea of having someone there. I have no complaints, honestly, and would stay here again.

Very walkable to a lot of downtown and multiple bus/trolley stops. Sometimes gets a little loud; room does not get dark. Suggestion: please put up curtains on top of the blinds, the blinds do not block out the light from outside.

Terrible experience checking in. No information emailed prior to arrival. I did the pre verification on line several months ago before change of ownership. We couldn’t get in to the property, online kept saying reservation could not be found. No staff available to ask, tel no provided said not taking calls. After 3 hours on phone to Expedia we finally got into the room
