It is on a busy intersection with lots of traffic, so there is much noise from the street. When I checked in and got to my room, I wanted to get ice for a drink, and the ice bucket appeared to have been used as a trash can previously and hadn’t been cleaned; when I brought it to the staff’s attention, they replaced it, but unlike other hotels, they do not use a plastic liner (bag), so the ice goes directly into the bucket which is a bit disconcerting. When I went to get ice which was from a new ice machine, the room’s floor was dirty with some sort of debris/dirt/substance which was a bit disconcerting as well. The staff has been very friendly and accommodating, and the bed seems very comfortable although I haven’t slept in the room yet. One more item that has been common in other hotels and motels that is lacking is hand soap (bar or liquid); I needed to wash my hands twice, and had to use the body wash from the shower. The towels (2) were another interesting element; they were both too small al which required me to use both to dry off after a shower, and one was pretty thin from what appeared was heavy use. The room is quaint and doesn’t have a lot of empty, wasted space; tight would be a good description. Finally, the TV was the final item I will address because with a season of playoffs (NBA/NHL), I was hopeful to watch some games, but the TV (DirecTV) didn’t have a guide of channels so I had to do a ‘Smart Search’ to find programs, but nothing was available.
