Summary of reviews
Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's excellent location, particularly its proximity to hospitals and universities. However, many expressed dissatisfaction with the service, citing rude staff and incorrect reservations. Cleanliness was also a concern, with reports of musty smells and dated rooms. While some guests found the beds comfortable, others felt the overall value did not match the high prices.AI-generated from customer reviews

Cons (-) Very noisy. Had construction going on before 5am. Elevators were not functioning.
Pros (+) It was nice and comfortable.
