Great for the price and location, but loud

The hotel was good. Great if you really consider the price and location, but not amazing. It was a fine stay. Staff was nice, and the rooms were cleaned daily. It is a small hotel with not very many amenities. However, it is walking distance to a lot of great bars and restaurants, plus the Lafayette hotel whos lobby and must ammeneties are open to the public. The only complaint I would say I had was the noise. You'll see many others complain about it and they are right. There were loud cars and loud people stumbling home after a night out. If a lot of street noise bothers you, this probably isn't the place for you. We got on just fine after we turned on the fan for some added white noise. Other than that, everything went well.

Upon check-in we were put in a room that was already occupied. Room was clean and seemed to be updated recently. Neighborhood was a bit suspicious. A solid 2.5 stars.

Was a fine place except for parking. They only have 6 spaces for 10 rooms, and street parking can be tough in the area... especially late in the evening.
