The location is fantastic for attending conferences at the convention center, and Street it's on is very quiet and safe, so the best of the both worlds. ##### Ward Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ian 17 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### July stay Susie was great to deal with and very accommodating to our requests.

It’s a walkable location for shopping and nightlife too. However, the unsanitary conditions were too much. While I understand that this is an old property, that’s not an excuse for the general uncleanliness. There were layers of dust everywhere, completely stained mattresses, and pillows with holes too. This is a communal living space, practicing frugality, and that’s ok. It’s not ok to have a stack of filthy oven mitts in the kitchen though. I went into the bathroom and someone had sprayed disinfectant but didn’t bother to wipe it up with a clean cloth. They launder the sheets, but you also have to mop, dust, repair water damaged walls, clean the windows, and remove blackened carpet on the stairs too. Nobody deserves to sleep in filth no matter how cheap the room is. ##### Sylvia Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ariane 18 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ease of check in, friendly staff.
