This hotel looks nice on the hotel website... so I booked it thinking it was something of a "boutique" hotel. The photos of their lobby make it look rather chic - the reality is that the entrance and lobby area are creepy. There were people hanging out on the front steps of the hotel, as if they had nothing else to do, and more people draped on the chairs and sofas in the lobby, in front of the loud TV. The whole hotel seemed rather low-class and noisy at all hours - that has a lot to do with the very thin walls and doors. My neighbors had bad sex one morning - I know, I heard the whole five minutes of it through the wall. And wood floors? Who thought that was a good idea?? If you've ever lived in an apartment, you know that carpet absorbs noise much better. That said, the carpet in the hallway was not something I would wish on anyone -- smelly, dingy, old carpet that added to the old, stale feeling of the hotel.
On the positive side, my room was very large and spacious, there was a Keurig coffee maker in the room, and a clock with an ipod charger.
I understand now from the reviews here that the hotel has been undergoing renovations. I would say there were about halfway there - not yet at a four-star, but a little beyond a two-star.
