Good central location. Staff was friendly. Room was clean and well maintained, however one day we asked for housekeeping services when we left at 11am and when we returned at 6pm the room had not been done. Also, the exact same breakfast choices for the four mornings we were there was a bit disappointing. All in all though, would stay there again.

We had a totally unacceptable experience at this hotel. When we arrived, the door was locked. Nobody answered the bell intercom or the telephone. It was after midnight and raining and we were stranded outside. 20 minutes later, a woman came into the lobby and opened the door. When I mentioned what had happened, she started yelling at me that she was the only one working that night and there was nothing she could do about it. I have never seen behavior like this at a hotel. The hotel employee was so hostile and rude that we left the hotel and had to look for other accommodations late at night in the rain.

Hotel was clean and the house keeping did a great job each day. Most of the staff were friendly and acknowledged us. Some staff not so happy but in general nice hotel. Not quite as “pretty” as the website photos may show.

Small rooms with boutique feel surrounded by good restaurants and coffee shops. Breakfast was better than usual at this price point. Rooms were comfortable although small and walls thin so you could hear neighbors in the shower. Staff was friendly. I would skip the attached restaurant - there are better options nearby.

Cute boutique hotel in arts district in historic building, reminiscent of NYC theatre district. Room is really small by today’s standards but shower and bathroom large. All I needed for a business stay of one night plus free breakfast!!!! Great vegan restaurants and theatres nearby in walking distance! For the price I will stay here again! And staff were wonderful!
