Hotel Zindel was great! Our first stay in this style of hotel where there isn’t a large onsite staff presence. Place was great. Very clean and such a perfect walkable area.

No staff = unsafe stay
This hotel has no staff; it is fully automated. While interesting in concept, it doesn’t work when technical issues arise. Guests must enter codes to open the front door to the hotel. For the duration of the trip, I did not receive updated codes to unlock the front door to get into the hotel. This forced me to call the corporation and wait outside the hotel in the dark alone. This hotel is located near the highway 5 overpass and I did not feel safe as a solo female traveler. I should have been able to enter and exit the hotel seamlessly during my stay. I am curious what would happen if any of the guests experienced an emergency during their stay. Who would assist them in getting critical help? After staying here, I realized that hotels need staff and this system simply does not work.

My room was very quiet despite being immediately next to the highway. There were no curtains or shades on the two large bathroom windows (it was unclear if people could see in from outside, but I was able to see the highway and window of a nearby house). The check-in process using door codes went smoothly for me, but I saw an international guest who was struggling because she couldn't receive the door codes at her international phone number. The property appeared well-kept. It was surprisingly quiet inside even though the hallways echoed whenever any guest spoke or closed a door in the hallway. The hotel is well-positioned in location to many great Little Italy dining options. There is no parking or onsite luggage storage, but I found paid alternatives nearby.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Terrible! Shared community bathroom which is highly unsanitary. Bathroom floor was dirty, low water pressure. Then they updated codes without updating you via Text message so I was outside stuck at 3am trying to reach someone to get the new password. Then updated the bathroom password so I couldn’t shower before checking out and didn’t even accommodate a late check out. Thin cheap walls, you can literally hear everything from the loud streets to the person walking in the hallway. I wouldn’t recommend. Cheap and poorly built building. Oh and no parking. I won’t be back!

Great location walking distance to Little Italy. The building is updated but older and the walls were a little thin. Over all a great value and would stay agin.

It was easy to reach staff via text, so contactless check-in/stay was convenient. Bathroom floor could have been less dusty/dirty, but that was understandable considering it was a shared bathroom and therefore multiple people were walking in/out and using it. Overall, nice room and stay!

This hotel was extremely clean, nice and comfortable! Super easy to check in. Please keep in mind, it’s not your typical hotel where you are greeted by a hotel worker. They send you your codes. Coffee and a little lounge area are available. They even have a pool table available to use. There isn’t any elevator so be aware of having to use stairs (wasn’t an issue for us). I loved our stay, and definitely will be coming back! Thank you!
