Clean, but the train was too noisy for us. Also, the total nightly charge was more than agreed to.

Great downtown location.
The hotel is recently updated. The room is spacious, the bed was firm and comfortable. The room has a coffee maker (Pods), mini-fridge and microwave. The staff was friendly and helpful. There are a ton of restaurant and bar options within a few blocks. They offer a $6 credit towards breakfast at Rosie's which has great food, but there can be a little bit of a wait for your food if they are busy. There are railroad tracks nearby and you can hear the trains but they are no too loud. I would definitely stay here again.

Rooms are a bit small and not that good looking or comfortable for a 3 star hotel. Front desk people were also not accommodating with our request to make a small change. They had that typical downtown hotel greed, where everything costs and nothing is free.
