The DEXTRO Little Italy, BW Premier Collection

The DEXTRO Little Italy, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent
"The room was pretty great there was a nice view of the town, but we could see homeless people in tents sleeping, so there was that. Front desk was amazing. The bar downstairs was great my husband went down and had a drink and watched some sports. Overall a great trip: for a three-star hotel, it was fantastic! Price of room was average, but the parking was a little much at $37.50 for one 24 hour peri[parking fr 9:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. was steep."
