Nice central location in Little Italy - so much is walkable, e.g. dining and farmer's market. Downside is having to pay for street parking (at least during construction). Nice rooms and helpful staff! We enjoyed our stay.

This is the perfect place, central to everything we found for walking! The staff are great at recommending places to go. Rooms were just right as we aren't in the hotel room for long anyways. The beds are very comfy and the pillows were too! Probably the most comfortable spot to sleep that we've stayed in America.
