Secret hiding place

Great stay. Comfortable bed. Challenge to find the refrigerator. Secret hiding place is in the drawer of the desk. Could not figure out the coffee machine will have to try next time. Front desk stated' upgraded you room ie meaning room with view of parking lot.

This was a last minute booking, but we were treated like princesses! We booked a condo through VRBO, only to find out that our booking didn't exist! I found this hotel nearby and they had one room left. We snatched it up and literally EVERY person who worked there was so friendly and accommodating, we felt like royalty.

Delightful place to stay in the theater district

This place is fabulous. It is not like all the cookie-cutter hotel chains. Each room has unique artwork, which is also found throughout the hotel. Free snacks in the room! Sparkling wine at check in! The complimentary breakfast is pretty good. Overnight parking is expensive but you can park in a local lot instead. I loved staying here.
