The Hotel Des Artes is in a great location and the art is very funky.
However, the parking is more expensive than they tell you if you ask (we were told it would be $15 and it was $25 a day) Our room, at the rear of the hotel was very noisy (with the bar below being open late and then the glass bins being emptied at 4am)You can't open the windows because of the noise and there are no fans so you end up baking hot! The art in our room was damaged which was a bit disappointing. The ice machine is a nightmare and might take your hand off if your not carefully. Breakfast is packed and in a tiny room.
And finally, housekeeping! She tried to clean our room at 8am, luckily we had locked the door as she didn't knock first and we were still in bed. Second, she then tried to come back at 8.30am and then at 9am so in the end we got up and let her in. She just wouldn't take no for an answer. So no lie in for us!
I think given the experience we had the location is great but the rooms overpriced.
