Excellent staff. Bed was very comfortable and I was grateful for the pillow options. The room was clean and I was happy to have the fridge, updated TV with streaming options, and even bath salts for the tub. Unfortunately the walls are exceptionally thin and I had noisy neighbors on both sides. To their credit, they offer noise machines and ear plugs for those who need them.

This has become my go-to hotel when coming home to The City. It’s a great location and they have an awesome vibe going as well. It’s the little things.

A Gem for Budget Travelers

I can’t say enough good things about the Chancellor. I’ve stayed here for at least 30 nights, and every time the staff has been so friendly and accommodating. It’s always clean, and the beds are super comfy. Its location is great for catching transit to most everywhere in the city. Oh yeah, I’m usually able to check in about a hour early. Looking forward to next time!
