Old hotel with older style elevators, but overall comfy and clean hotel. Parking is a bit of an inconvenience, but they make it fairly easy. Do plan on paying for parking. I was unaware of this cost. It was in a perfect location for my family venu.
We stayed for one night and couldn't believe how small the room was, like a closet. Plus the windows faced walls right up against them. The bathroom sink and shower drains were clogged even after they tried to unclog them. The old school elevator is hard to get in and out of when carrying things. False advertising.
Entrance is deceiving, beautiful crystal chandeliers. Old fashioned gate and door evevator is very quaint, if you like that kind of thing. Heavy and noisy. The rooms are diabolical. First room had no sun light…moved to 8th floor, same disgusting room. No upgrades available, all rooms are the same. Three days of no showers, there was only hot water in the sink. Telephone didn’t work, carpets are filthy, no tv remote, air con was so noisy we turned it off,but then realized the noise was coming from a massive contraption that runs outside the window, the sound compares to a train running all night. Receptionist, although very courteous simply said it was an historic building and they will be renovating soon. Avoid this place, the price is comparable to nicer hotels.
Good location for bars and clubs and gaslamp area but very noisy until wee hours of the morning. My room was clean but very small. Furnishings worn down. Bathroom (toilet and shower) was small. Couldn't change the temperature in the room except to turn off the window air conditioner. But it was an old hotel and the basics were provided.
Although furniture in my room was well-worn and fixtures outdated, everything was clean and the staff was kind in each interaction. When I called asking for extra housekeeping items to be brought to my room, they arrived in a timely manner. A good option for budget travelers walking distance from convention center.
