Low value for high money
Pros:

Location is nice, the music theme is nice but doesn’t do much

Cons:

The room was dated and the air conditioning was extremely loud and noisy, it was an ok room but I felt it was very expensive for what it was. Also we were facing the front so had to close all blackout curtains when we changed, making the room very dark, some light curtains would have been nice

Best team!!
Pros:

First off, I want to give a complete hands-off to hiring staff. Every employee I encountered over my five day stay was kind, helpful, charismatic and friendly. I really cannot say enough about the people behind the scenes. Absolutely love the rock history and the vibe of the hotel. I would give it 6 stars if I could and will definitely be back!

Pros:

Great location and neighborhood. Comfortable hotel for a short or pre cruise stay.

Cons:

We enjoyed everything, although hotel took ages to release my deposit hold. Not sure if they would sent it back automatically if not countless emails exchange.

Hotel Max Ambience
Pros:

This hotel was great. Check-in was simple and since we arrived early we were able to have our bags stored while we explored the city. After getting back and enjoying a complimentary beer in the lobby, this just added to our experience. Overall, we greatly enjoyed our stay here.
