A nice , basic hotel close to Sparks street and Parliament.
Pros:

Nice rooms / decor/ location.
Nice little bar and coffee spot in the lobby.

Cons:

The Parking is off site and a little confusing - $25 per night to park about a block away, but there is another parking lot free on weekends a little bit closer.

Pros:

i liked the idea of using the room key for power that was super cool and unique and eco friendly

Cons:

front desk wasn’t overly helpful. i’m assuming due to having no power in the room when it’s not being used it would be hard to keep a fridge at the right temperature but i was still pretty shocked when there was no fridge. the shower door leaked.
