Cons:

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience. Unfortunately, one of the employees was not very friendly and didn’t properly program our room key, which left us unable to get in on the second day. When we went back for help, there was no apology, and it felt like we were bothering him rather than being assisted.
The room itself had a musty smell, and the water never got properly hot during our stay, which was disappointing. On the positive side, the room was cleaned, and the breakfast was okay.
Overall, there were some basic comfort and service issues that made the stay less enjoyable than expected.

Away from the heart of the city. Lots of places to walk.

Cons:

Smell outside was like sweet garbage. Is that the Bay?? Surprise $18 fee for parking.
