Negative Reviews
negative:
No Soundproofing
This is an older hotel so soundproofing is almost non-existent. You can hear traffic noise including emergency vehicles, converstations from your neighbors, and your AC unit is likely to be very noisy in your room. Bring earplugs.
negative:
Limited Parking Options
Parking spaces are limited and if you call ahead, they may be able to save you a parking badge for when you arrive, as this hotel partners with a parking garage nearby.
negative:
Small Rooms
Guests say that both rooms and bathrooms at this hotel are on the smaller side, but that is what you expect from a city hotel in an older building.
