"Nice & clean hotel. It’s in the heart of downtown and everything is walkable."

8/10 Good
"I booked a room that was cheaper because it was one floor above a rowdy pub. It was indeed loud with music and conversation, and it went until midnight or so each night of my Thurs-Mon holiday weekend stay — not a huge problem for me, because I was sometimes out late myself and never go to bed early. But trust when the hotel tells you at booking that your room is above a boisterous bar."
