The front desk gentleman was very nice and gave me a bottle Of wine when i said I was going to walk to get one. Also offered me two glasses. The hotel was nice and room clean but the noise was too much and no parking was terrible. But I did enjoy the cute front patio.

Our stay at Hotel Zindel was great! The bed was SUPER comfy. I would say there needs to be better communication between the hotel itself and the concierge services about what amenities the hotel can actually provide. The concierge service was incredible, and there were so many great recommendations.Thoroughly enjoyed, Little Italy, the neighborhood the hotel borders!

Property was awesome for a hostile. They kept the bathrooms clean, and the property itself is in really good shape and updated. Only complaint is that room service didn’t come into our room once to clean up. Also, we didn’t know it was a hostel. It turned out being OK but you have a shared bathroom with everybody.
