4/5
so i booked before reading reviews ...i was a bit comprehensive but went in with an open mind ... my stay was actually very pleasant ! my room was nice i guess nothing way too fancy , had a good view of the mountains and buildings . Ac/ heater worked prefect wasn't loud or nothing it did look outdated but it worked . No microwave but didn't bother me that much since we only stayed 3 days . 5$ for a bottle of water i guess it's the convenience that your paying for . they did let me know at check in that if i needed room service i had to tell them the nite before or the morning of but didn't really needed it since it was only a 3 day stay . wasn't noisy at all and we had guest on both sides of our room . the bed was good only thing i didn't like where the pillows they where big but that's just not to my liking my wife said she liked the pillows . $30 to park overnight maybe it should be free with your stay . the location was perfect ! close to 16th mall , restaurants, convention center , union station and many restaurants and bars . i did receive my deposit back 2 days after checking out . overall it was a good stay for me and my wife .

How does this hotel has any good reviews? When you pay almost $200 for one night stay, you expect something good in return. Everything except for the location was not pleasant about this. Good luck having a goodnight sleep with the loudest AC from 1950’s. The popcorn ceiling has years of filth stuck to it and shower was the worst. Not enough hot water or pressure. Not to mention body wash smelled horrible. No complimentary breakfast, it was $20/ person. (Don’t really care about this part but it bothered a little with $180/ night stay and no complimentary breakfast) No free parking so be ready to pay $47 for overnight parking. Very disappointed.
