I booked this Hotel solely because of the location around the corner from a business appointment. I arrived mid afternoon and was very put out when I walked in and saw someone fast asleep on the worn furniture in the front lobby. I had pre-paid or I would have walked out then.
When I walked into my room I almost had a panic attack - it was that small with a teeny window overlooking a brick courtyard. No closet, hooks on the wall. No dresser but a couple of built in drawers and a half-size desk and straight back chair and queen size bed rounded out the picture.
I was going to work in my room ( free wifi but questionable security notice on the wifi) but decided that I couldn't stay in the room ( yes, I am a little dramatic). I went back to the front desk and told them that the room was not what I had expected and would not work.
A bellman showed me two options and although the desk had initially told me it would mean a $50 upgrade fee, I must have looked pretty pathetic, because they waived the fee.
The new room faced the street, had a king sized bed, and in addition to a small desk, had two worn but comfortable side chairs. On top of that -- three large windows with bright sunlight.
While there were still nicks on the furniture -- the place was CLEAN and totally acceptable. I was only staying one night -- good thing -- the closet was about 6 inches deep.
Morning complimentary full continental breakfast and then I was on my way.
All is well that ends well.
