    The hotel was stylish and the breakfast was good.

    Doors are heavy and loud . Both the entry door as well as the bathroom glass sliding door.

    7JeromePosted on: 4-7-2021

    Staff was very helpful. Hotel was clean.

    Rooms where extremely small and did not have a fridge or microwave. Also, bar was closed. No reason for the bar to be closed when there was one open at the adjacent hotel and their rooftop.

    4Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 2-28-2021

    Good location, nice roof top area.

    Had to take a different elevator to get to the lobby of this hotel as it shares a property with another hotel. Bathroom fan cannot be turned off and emits a loud, shrill, noise. It was difficult to sleep with the noise.

    4Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 1-23-2021

    Pleasant staff. Clean. Good lighting in room. Good location. Good blackout blinds.

    Bed miserable, no box spring, mattress on wood low to floor. Kid size-tiny chair, desk piece of wood low to floor, banged leg on wood. Tiny sitting chair. Shower door slam bruise. No privacy to change. Tv too close to bed. Sore back after stay. Not comfy.

    The staff were friendly and very accommodating.

    AC wouldn’t work properly. They tried to reset twice. They did offer another room but was very late at night. I appreciated the offer.

    location

    Confusing lobby since two hotels merge together.

    10EdwardPosted on: 6-29-2021

    Loved the hotel! The ambiance and location was perfect. We¿ll definitely be back.

    Great location.

    Staff were very nice, respectful and helpful.

    4TürkalpPosted on: 10-13-2025

    Location better I very easily access all transportation ways

    I felt sorry for the reception staff because they probably have to stand all day, which I can’t approve of. Also, the water in the rooms wasn’t cold — finding cold water was quite difficult. And the Wi-Fi in the room didn’t work properly; I couldn’t connect my computer and had to work in the lobby instead.

    The staff was friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Place was clean and modern looking just like the photos.

    There was no microwave in the hotel room, parking had to be paid and not included with the hotel. The listing was false advertised, showing photos of the pool access and rooftop area that was to be included with the AC hotel and not indicating that was for that Otis hotel part of the property. Unfortunately, probably won’t stay again there.

    4ChrisPosted on: 5-17-2025

    Staff was friendly and room was clean and comfortable.

    Hidden fees and mystery charges that don't appear until it's too late. Only hotel I've ever had a pricing discrepancy with. Great stay but not worth the financial hassle.

    6BryanPosted on: 4-2-2025

    Close to college

    I feel they are money hungry. They charged my card 25.00 in case I wanted to buy something at the hotel. If i did not I would lose my money.of course that was not in my price when I booked the room. So it was hidden charge.

    Location

    Coffee pot was located where there was no electric outlet as well as the iron and ironing board. There was no hand soap at the sink or anywhere to be found. Lousy view of the top of the gross building below us and was woken up about 4:00 am to a popping sound that I assume was trash trucks dumping dumpsters. I was charged more on my debit card than the invoice and will be investigating that issue. For a $340.00 charge, I have stayed in better hotels for less. So disappointed!

    Location, food, parking, staff, decor, comfort, rooftop pool and bar.

    Nothing!

    10ColemanPosted on: 7-2-2024

    That you advertise you have a pool when you in fact do not, and you to pay $20 extra. You should have the 11th floor as one of your pictures when it is not part of your hotel. False advertising
