Location is great however the rooms are dingy and not at all like the pictures. Floors are sticky, soap and shampoo dispensers rusty, bead squeaky, and I'm not sure why they advertise sound proof rooms but they're definitely not. Hallways are creepy and the tiny pool on the roof is ridiculous. They also advertise charging for EV however turns out they actually don't have a charging station. False advertisement for $45 valet parking. Won't be staying here again.

Absolutely would not recommend, it’s very terrible for the price. The room is super rusty, and it’s super unclean - the floor is dirty and the towels either have stain or hair (that’s not mine. The heater doesn’t work so I froze the whole nights. The worst is I woke up with rushes around my neck after my first night ( I have no known allergies and this never happened during my lifetime) and after the second night, it got significantly worsen. Terrible condition for the price
