The rooftop pool and bar was nice, not overly elegant but comfortable and relaxed, excellent food, and drink prices. Not the quietest place to stay, of course, being downtown, but the nostalgia is something that I enjoy.

An amazing option if you want to save a ton of money but stay near the downtown area. Amazing pool, nice lobby, and really great to have two bathrooms + shower in each room. It is a bummer that you can't eat or drink outside food in the lobby or at the rooftop, but there is a common area in the basement where you can heat up your food, etc. However, with this low rate, you can't really complain about anything.

Second time staying at this hotel and have had nothing but a great experience. Staff is super friendly. Room is always clean and the shower head pressure is great. The only issue was that the button on the bedside phone to call down to the front desk did not work, but other than that, everything was great. I will be staying there again.
