Great location! The overall property is average. When we walked into our room it had a weird stale smell. Not very inviting. I noticed the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash older had rust all over it. The water pressure was very low and it looks like the shower head could use a good cleaning. The staff was very nice. The parking garage is horrible, at least driving in a minivan. Very tight and a major pain.

Decor and style of this hotel is wonderful...but once you get to the room, you see the age of the hotel. Room was not clean (brownie bits on carpet). Also, we had to wait an entire day to get a do not disturb tag. In the meantime, there was a light knock on the door with attempt to open - when we spoke, they quickly left. We found out this was not staff. One front desk person was fabulous and super nice...next day total opposite. This person should not be customer facing. Pool area needs better lighting - hard to see to play ping pong. Overall style is great but all other areas fell short.

We love the vintage décor. Nice exercise facility, but I had trouble figuring out how to make the Peloton bike work since it was my first time. Great dining choices close by. A little bit difficult to navigate with all of the one way streets in the area, but we got it figured out.
