Excellent9.1
Pros: The courtyard was cute.
Cons: The beds did not feel sturdy.
Good6.2
Pros: Location is decent--fairly touristy area a half mile to mile from the most touristy areas. It was the cheapest option around this part of town, but still very expensive by most standards. Small parking area is available, but fills up and is first come, first serve.
Cons: Tile floors were stained and sticky. Mildew smell. Mattress and pillows old and uncomfortable. Air conditioner could barely keep up. Room included a refrigerator, but this also wasn't that cold even on the highest setting.
Excellent8.2
Pros: Location and price
Cons: Beds were awfully uncomfortable
Excellent10.0
Pros: The location is excellent. The beds were comfy and the staff were kind and accommodating.
Cons: The building is dated and worn, it part of its charm. It worked great for us. We were concerned with the room next to ours they were loud and smoking heavy (the smoking came in our window). The concern ended quickly and the guys next to us ended up being no problem at all.
Excellent8.8
Pros: Great location, friendly and helpful staff. Free parking was great, and I liked the outdoor kitchen and courtyard area.
Cons: Bathrooms could have been a bit cleaner, ran out of tp.
