I had an issue with check in and the bathroom shower. At check in, my card was charged 3x’s and an unnecessary fee was added. We stayed in a loft room and when you took a shower, the tub was filling up like a bath at the same time. Price & location was good. Not sure if I’ll stay there in the future.

It was clean and the staff was very friendly. The only issue I had which the hotel has no control over was the noise from street. We walked to nationwide area and restaurants. The restaurant at the hotel was great too.
