Inauguration Stay

The hotel is very convenient to Van Dorn Metro. It was a nice, comfortable stay but the hotel is older. One of the elevators doesn’t work. The hotel halls and other areas could use a major cleaning. The room itself was clean.

I had great stay, the only thing they use to have a shuttle to the metro before covid, I wish they bring it back the walk to the Van Dorn Street station isn't that bad because it is all down hill but from the station to the Hotel is a tough walk because of the long uphill walk

The price was good and staff were helpful. However, the infrastructure is old. One of the two elevators has been out of commission for months. The shower is old and has a clunky and confusing temperature control. Do not get a street side room. There is a hill with a stop light directly in front of the hotel with alot of traffic noise during the night. Be careful when making a left hand turn out of the hotel as visibility is poor on the left side.
