    everything was within walkable distance, buses near by and the light rail station. i thought i would hear everything from outside as in traffic, but i was wrong (just emergency vehicles only). the luggage storage was perfect, the lock was a bit janky tbh… would recommend they change it into a better system. the lounge area was great, the water area and essential table on every floor is a lifesaver!

    disliked how the people above me were loud, sounded like they were moving around furniture from 6-8pm. they should really enforce quiet hours.

    Good budget stay, great location

    Good value, newly remodeled building. Centrally located, lots of walkable food/shopping options. Free lobby luggage storage lockers with building key-code access.

    No elevator, quite a bit of street noise/loud music from nearby bars on the weekend. Room could be a little cleaner - clumps of hairs in bed and on floor.
