Love this Hotel! It looks cool like a set of a movie or something, reasonable rates, and the rooms are rather pleasant and clean. I mean if I was on vacation for a week or so this wouldnt be the place to stay but for a couple of hours or 1 night stay it's perfect!

Great staff. Cute, clean, quiet. No WiFi, but they do have Direct TV. There is no room phone (but who really needs one), but there is a small fridge and a small microwave. Bring your own toiletries. The shower could use more water pressure.

The night receptionest is kind and very helpful. I've seen her help people get a room, knowing she will never get reimbursed. She deserves a raise.
