Great budget hotel in the city
We had plans to see a show and spend time with friends. This was great as a place to get ready, and to sleep. No frills but adequate. I'd stay again.

Location is perfect and rooms were quiet. Staff are friendly but not very helpful. We were sent up the wrong flight of stairs (we were the top floor with baggage). When we asked about the speak easy next door or places to go, they didn't know anything about the bar next door or things to do. This hotel really needs to move on from Covid or stop blaming covid as the reason why they don't offer any services. They don't store baggage...due to Covid(???) and they don't give discounts to the breakfast place next door, which it stated they did online. When we asked what location was closest to the hotel for baggage storage, the front desk said "they don't give recommendations - just the website. It would be helpful to know which location was closest or like...what their hours are and then we could decide if that suited us. If you're looking for a cheap place to sleep and you're fully self sufficient and don't need any help, this is a great spot!

Placed in a room with a shared bathroom when I paid for a private one. Was told I’d receive money back and it’s been 5 days with no word. I was finally told that “management would get to my email when they could”… so much for service.

Many stairs, no elevator, costly.
Huge long staircases with no elevator. Helpful employee took suitcase up four flights but no one around at check out. All remote everythng. Cramped, expensive room. Good location but next to noisy party venue. No one there at night to supervise loud party in stairwell.

The property has no elevator, and we had to walk through groups of teenagers smoking marijuana to get through to the door. They were so loud one of the other guests asked us what was going on outside. There was hair in the sink when we arrived, and the toilet did not really flush well. For the price we should have gotten a full service hotel.

I did not read carefully and did not realize it was a walk-up, e.g. no elevator, and how they do not store luggage should one arrive early or have to leave much later after check-out. The stay was otherwise great.

Lots of stairs but a bargin
Though the 4 flights of stairs made it difficult, the hotel clearly has been updated with new bathrooms and other iems. VERY small room but quite comfortable, modern and clean
