Disliked: Amenities
The bed was comfortable. The place was under renovation. The floors in my room were great. The bed spread was NOT in the best of shape. No blanket only the sheets. The faucet was dripping. Then at 3:45 am an alarm went off, sounded like a wrist watch under the bed or in the wall.

This was the perfect location if you are attending the concert across the street at The Van Buren! Had a balcony overlooking the venue and next to the venue I was able to order pizza and fries from Ziggys! It had a microwave, fridge and blow drier! Would stay again.

There were no amenities, the receptionist was rude, and the room was not in the best condition, even though the hotel is under renovation. We woke up multiple times during the night due to loud verbal fights and screaming inside the hotel. While it is very inexpensive, it is not worth it. I was trying to save money, but as a woman, I felt extremely unsafe staying here.
