Check in staff were unfriendly and unprofessional Room was small, bathroom had several issues : sink was dysfunctional (tap ran water onto counter) and drain was clogged. No bathroom fan so steamed up horribly. Very noisy first night with other guests on floor and outside in early AM (garbage removal at 6am). Upon checkout, and after paying $100 for 2 nights of valet parking, I discovered someone had urinated all over the roof/side of my vehicle so wherever it was parked was u safe and insecure.

Hotel in the center of downtown. We were about 10 blocks from everything we wanted to see and enjoy. Breakfast in the morning is excellent. Boobie is a fantastic server, and enhanced our stay with suggestions of other things to experience. A great stay!

Hotel is really nice, had a lot of character and history and the room was clean. Staff are great, incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Kevin! He was great. Beds are decent, the pillows are oddly small and square. Rooms have a few dings and dents here and there but overall it was pretty good. Easy walk to lots of food trucks, coffee shops and restaurants. Ride share (Uber/Lyft, etc) are never more than a few minute wait. The area outside is dirty, smells like pee, there’s lots of garbage and transient people walking around, smoking drugs, sleeping on the sidewalks, urinating in the middle of the road, etc but was never harassed by anyone.

The overnight parking was an additional $49 and I don’t remember reading that when I picked the hotel. There is public parking about a 1/2 block away for $28 but having all the expense facts more clearly available would be helpful. The bed and bedding was lovely and I got a great night’s sleep!
