Negative Reviews
negative:
Parking situation isn't ideal.
Getting a parking spot at this hotel can be difficult. Not only are spaces tight, but because guests have to share a lot with restaurant patrons, it can be hard to get a spot at all.
negative:
Noise in the area can go late into the night.
Live music is featured often in the bar at this accommodation. Between these performances and rowdy patrons frequenting the establishment until late into the night, not everyone will be able to get a lot of rest.
negative:
Bathrooms could use some work.
Some upgrades to the en suite facilities would improve this hotel. Most of the guest complaints focus on the showers, and how the poor water pressure seldom leaves them feeling like they are really clean.
