The room was nice. We upgraded our room, so I'm not sure how to compare it to a regular price room. Wouldn't be a terrible extended stay room. The hotel was quiet and clean. I'd stay there again.

2nd time staying here. I came for the hot tub but return because of the service. As last time, great staff, friendly service, nice rooms (I even got a nice upgrade), convenient location. I was a bit lost in the stairwell and a friendly employee even directed me to the exit. Thank you Lori! Highly recommended. Will return.

We just went for the weekend. Hotel is nice, a bit dated/historic if you like that vibe. Valet was great but expensive. No outdoor pool which for us is a huge downside. But, they literally had the best gym I have ever seen in a hotel!! TV's need an upgrade. The bed and pillows were comfortable. My morning Keurig coffee was a disappointment, only teas and decaf in the room. Front desk brought coffee from downstairs but it was not good either. So, we walked around the corner to 1886 Cafe and Bakery and had an amazing breakfast and coffee! Highly recommend. There are a lot of RULES at this hotel and things are only open inside the hotel at weird hours. Other than that, it was nice. I wouldn't stay there again when there are so many other options in the same price range that offer more for less.

I loved staying at this hotel. The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful. Geraldo would always open the door for me when I returned and would say "welcome home." The location is perfect IF you like staying in a downtown area. It's walkable to shops, dining, theaters, the Congress St bridge, and the Capital building. CapMetro Bus stations are within a few blocks (Route 20 goes to/from the airport). The buses can get you to so many places in the city for $1.25. I loved the indoor pool and hot tub after a long day of walking around. You must spend time outside on the 2nd floor terrace. Absolutely a great, relaxing space. Bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. This is downtown, and you will notice music from across the street (esp on a Sat night) and roaring engines from vehicles on the street. The hotel cannot control this, so plan accordingly. If noise REALLY bothers you, don't stay anywhere downtown. All the downtown hotels are in a similar situation. Bring sunglasses. There are homeless people on the street as you walk around. They are not aggressive, but having sunglasses helps you avoid eye contact. Again, this is not something the hotel can control. It is downtown after all. They are not inside the hotel property or near the entrance, so you don't have to worry about that.
