Was in town for a college baseball series. It was super close to restaurants and the stadium. However, it was by no means quiet. The street in front of the hotel is a very busy one and high traffic early and late. For the price of the room, it certainly wasn't worth the price. The hotel lost power for about 5 hours and no generator etc. Thank goodness we were on the 3rd floor and only had to walk up the 6? flights of stairs.

The water was turned off for practically our whole stay and when finally was turned back on - it was ice cold and wouldn’t get warm. There was leaks in hallway that was so soaked my heels were wet and squishy walking thru water. It smelled like mildew/mold. Couldn’t flush our toilet. Couldn’t tell if employees in lobby were employee or guests… nothing was stocked in lobby for purchase. Bananas rotted, had cereal but no milk. Only 2-3 cold bottle of water. Buckets/ladders all over for leaks. Basics of hotel were not accommodated. Want a refund. Awful experience. No warning given to us hotel was damaged with leaks and water would be off.
