"wifi wouldn’t connect, when we called the front desk to ask (I had work I needed to do, and specifically checked before booking that the room included wifi) was met with attitude to “just connect” even though the wifi network wasn’t visible or available. also, you have no control over the temperature of your room, and TV is only regular cable - I wasn’t able to stream anything due to the lack of wifi. no vending machines as well. absolutely gorgeous building with rich history, but for the price, much better off going somewhere more up to date."

"Excellent hotel in Chinatown area."

"Lovely stay"

"The hotel was clean, and the staff were very kind. The view from the rooftop restaurant and bar was lovely, and there were always sufficient equipment/machines available at the gym. The only drawbacks were the noise from frequent sirens on the busy surrounding streets at night and the limited number of restaurants and shops within walking distance."

"I’ve been here multiple times and it’s always amazing. Clean, affordable, friendly staff and attached parking!"

"The outside area was okay. The inside was clean, bed was comfortable. There was a microwave (didn’t use) and refrigerator. Large screen tv was nice. Water pressure was just okay. Had some issues checking in because I used my initials (which is what I go by) on my reservation and my ID has my name fully written out. The front desk was not going to let me stay because of that. I had to call Hotels.com and finally they changed my reservation to state my full name. Was not off to a good start. Did have some nice restaurants near by and the lake was across the main road."

"It was a very cool pet friendly place. It was stocked with everything you could possibly need, they even left dog treats for my pups. Which they enjoyed! The place had an overall very cool vibe. My kids enjoyed the different decorations that were all over. We would definitely stay there again when we are in town."

"Very spacious and inviting. The staff was helpful and delivered quality service."
