Pros +
- The price based on downtown 4 star hotel prices was a bargain at the time. The front desk staff and concierge team where all amazing. The bed was very comfortable. It's a block from 6th St. and close to restaurants and shopping areas.

- Staff, cleanliness, 2nd floor bar
Cons -
- My room was dirty. There was a long strand of hair inside of the bathtub, and the toilet still had brown matter settled at the bottom of it. It seemed like someone tried to clean it real fast before the guest arrived.
- They gave us the wrong room. We informed them, they knew it, and we never got called back. Horrible staff.
- A/C was not working in room
