It was a busy night downtown, but Jade did a great job greeting each guest. Parking is limited, but there is a public gated lot very close by and you get a pass from the hotel.

I enjoyed the upscale motel feel. I would have had a rug to wipe feet off in the room. The floor was very slippery when wet.

Staff was great and location can’t be beat for the price. Unfortunately the hotel itself falls short. Room just seems old and could use some TLC. Toilet was leaking. Lampshade was torn. Towels were stained. We were in a premium double and it was very loud. Maybe carpeting would help? We heard constant noise from upstairs and next door. Also, while the front gate was locked, the back elevator was accessible to anyone. It seems like a security issue that should be addressed. I really appreciated the staff, who were very helpful in facilitating our early checkout. All the best.

Great location if going to Knitting Factory. Great food all around within walking distance. Best secret is the Happy Hour in the hotel lounge, the Sapphire which has Happy Hour 4-6 Tues-Sat and all day Sunday. Unreal, 50% off everything and decent food!
