Location is very distinguishable by color and design . All esthetic really over the top.
I liked the place. The property was recently renovated and still very clean. The staff there were nice as well. There were security guards around, so I didn’t need to worry about safety, which was really important to me. It was a bit noisy due to the air conditioning, the street outside, and people walking around, but that wasn’t a major issue for me.
The hotel itself is great. The rooms are clean and the staff is friendly. It's just in a dirty neighborhood. Like any major city on the west coast. There were a lot of homeless and open air drug use in the surrounding area of the hotel. But even with all that. I would stay here again.
Really liked the customer service. Very friendly staff, were extremely accommodating and were attentive to all concerns we had. We would definitely return to this hotel.

Hallway carpet old and musty. Rooms are really dark hard to see - otherwise safe and staff was the best part and efficient

We stayed there a few nights and street noise was too much
Brutal stay. The AC unit every 2-3min let out a 5-10second-long loud “groan”. Couldn’t sleep. When I turned the AC off the groan still happened. So not sure exactly what’s going on there. They had earplugs in the room I assumed was for noises from the street. Not sure if they were meant to deal with the loud groan but if so that would be crazy. I can’t use earplugs and of course shouldn’t be needed for an in-room issue. I told them upon departure to not rent out that room again until they fixed the situation- room 242. Got almost no sleep and a headache. Major fail.
It was the noisiest hotel room I have ever stayed in. Got zero sleep for our stay. There were tiny little bugs crawling on the bathroom floor. The room was clean enough though. The bathroom had no counter space, so no place to put your things. The staff were really friendly though and they had great coffee in the community kitchen. I thought it was expensive for what it was.
