Cons:

Very noisy on weekend nights. Directly above and directly across from two pubs open until 2AM. Then you hear the noisy street drunks kicked out at 2AM, followed by meth-head screaming matches at 6:30 AM. Even wearing earplugs it was impossible to rest. Horrible horrible noise. Not worth the money.

Health inspection needs to shut this place down.
Cons:

There was black mold in the shower. I had to cancel my stay and they won’t give me my money back. They offered to give me a different room for MORE money without insuring that one won’t have black mold either. I don’t want a respiratory illness so I’m glad I didn’t stay there. Even thought I’m out 350+ dollars I would rather that then stay there.

I will never stay there again and will not recommend it to anyone.
Pros:

No breakfast. Location was bad due to no parking.

Cons:

Old hotel trying to have a good reputation. Hard to find. The secure parking was 2 1/2 blocks away to try to bring suitcases back.
