This is a convenient location, but certain things were lacking. These include no onsite parking, no baggage cart, one and a half flights up to the lobby from the street, and no on-site restaurant or snack bar. The lighting is gloomy throughout the hotel, and the 'lounge area's' lights were out and there was no music. The common areas were unwelcoming, in general. On the other hand, the rooms were spacious, the kitchen, in particular, was well-appointed, and all of the room products were premium. Although there was a Chemex coffee brewer, the filters were not Chemex filters and the coffee grounds spilt the filter. Just don't offer a Chemex; a french press will do the trick. There were complimentary coffee beans and a nice grinder, but no discernible way to tell which setting to use to grind to the proper coarseness. There also was a good selection of channels on the easy-to-use television. If you are a business person in town for a week or more and are traveling solo, this is fine. Otherwise, there are too few amenities on site (which I knew). I did not expect such a dark, gloomy, and lifeless common area, however. It felt sad. I understand it might not be their business model to supply these things. However, better lighting and music and vending machine for canned cocktails and chips, for example, would be nice. Wishful thinking: a cocktail bar in the rear of the lobby would change my impression of this place ten-fold. Next time, I will return to a full-service hotel.
