The hotel is in a great location you cannot bear that, Hotel is old. water pressure in room very low and you can hear everything that is going on around you. But as I stated you cannot beat the location.
The water in the shower took like 10 min to go down. Other than that it was convenient and really close to little Italy.

The exterior of the property was beautiful, however inside it gave apartment living vibes. The room was good just needed a little update. The location of the property was great, everything is in walking distance and so many activities to do in the day and night. Parking is a hassle, so we had to park inside the property for an additional cost. Other then that it was good.
Property close to many dining choices. Rooms are ver small and has a motel atmosphere.

Staff was helpful. Site was perfect. But... kinda like a "lipstick on a pig" type of property. I wouldn't stay again or recommend.

Good location with an easy walk to restaurants, shopping, and attractions in Little Italy. The room was comfortable. It was adequate for my stay and needs. They wanted a large security deposit and the one elevator for the entire hotel was tricky to catch. Overall, it was good experience. This hotel fit my budget and within desired location.
