A simple one night stay.
Pros:

If your going to have an extra $50 dollar charge for "Security" reasons or something make sure to highlight that on their website/booking.com. I was expecting to only pay for the night all together at $154, but hey a surprise extra $50 dollars security charge made me go over budget. thx

I was told my reservation was not transferred to them from booking.com. I had to book another room directly through them
Pros:

Location and the hotel itself was very nice.

Cons:

The shower lever in our room was loose and almost completely broken. A couple towels were dirty upon arrival.

Muy buena relación costo beneficio sin sacrificar la higiene.
Pros:

Definitivamente me encantó el costo de la noche y que no cobra un extra para estacionar tu auto, era la mejor opción si llegas al hotel en auto. Preferimos pagar un uber para ir a un concierto en el Aragon Ballroom. La zona es muy tranquila, no hay mucho tráfico y adicionalmente hay un restaurante de comida Mexicana muy cerca. Las instalaciones están muy limpias, algo que no encuentras muy fácil en la ciudad por menos de 150USD la noche.

Cons:

La limpieza del lugar es muy buena, sin embargo el elevador es el único que tiene un olor raro.

Nice place with friendly staff
Pros:

breakfast and room

Cons:

a little noisy in the hallway in the morning, I think it was the maid service, but there was banging and doors slamming around 7-7:30.
