My room was on the 7th floor and VERY noisy from the major highway just behind the hotel. The windows were closed but the traffic noise came thru the window shaker. There is no free TV or I should say no network TV. I was looking forward to a Thursday night football game but no such luck. The room was clean but small. The sink was plumbed with hot water on the right & cold on the left but was easy to figure out when the hot water never got hot.

The entrance looks like a prison entrance. The parking entrance is very confusing to find. Room rather small. Low quality bed.

Overall the stay was fine. There wasn’t a phone to call the front desk within the room, so we did have to make stops down to the first floor, and unable to get ahold of the front desk by calling.

My bud and I stayed at Vantaggio for two nights, and it was perfect for our needs. The location is fantastic—just a short walk to bars and restaurants, which is exactly what we were looking for. The space itself is pretty no-frills and has a bit of a dorm-like vibe. It’s not luxury, but it’s great if you’re out and about all day and just need a place to crash.
