Location is awesome

The hotel is literally steps away fromthe Little Italy sign. Restaurants surround you. Amazing view of the bay as well. Rooms are small but the bed was very comfy. Lovely atrium and a coffee shop are downstairs.

My friends and I (3 in total) stayed in 2 bed room with a balcony view for a 2 day/1 night stay. We loved our experience. The staff were friendly and attentive and the property condition and facilities were great. This hotel was located in a pretty convenient location with many dining and walkable shopping locations. We were right across Morning Glory which was quite nice for breakfast. If there is one thing to note is the parking. Parking is difficult to find but we found street parking off State and Cedar. Even then it was a walkable distance to the hotel. Will be staying here again in the future.

Great location but the room was very small and the bed was very lumpy and the bathroom had nowhere to put toiletries. It was just very tight room for two people especially because my husband is 64 and I think it was a double bed and not even a queen bed.

Great location but that’s about all I can rave about. Everything else was okay. Only thing was the AC is super loud and made it hard to sleep. Could hear everything around in any adjacent room. It didn’t feel super clean and it’s very dated. You get what you pay for here. The only selling point I could support is the location.
