"I left a special jacket in my room closet and called right away. After submitting a request to a third-party service, I was emailed that my item had not been found. This is only possible if a member of the staff kept the jacket and didn't turn it in to lost and found. Truly disappointing."

"Ended up in bunk bed room unless I wanted to take lower floor; dark room. In general, rooms are very small and many of them face walls or dark alleyway. Good location, great staff and nice vibe. Shower was excellent."
