Our review:
1. A 1970s hotel, formerly downtrodden, that's been modernized at great expense
2. High quality bedding and towels
3. Excellent location for the gem show (4 shows within a 4 minute walk)
4. Huge in-room TV
5. High quality dual "rain" shower heads
6. Concrete floors kill noise from upper floors
7. Concrete walls kill noise from neighbors
8. New, new, new, everything new
9. Staff are super friendly
10. K-cup coffee maker in your room
11. A refrigerator in every room
12. New HVAC units in each room
13. Love the white and black Italian tile
14. A work desk is in the King bedrooms and Suites, but not the Double bedrooms
15. FREE Grab and go breakfast in the lobby, including coffee
16. Washer & dryer for only $1.50 / load
17. Funky, cool retro vibe
18. It's a NON-SMOKING property.
Cons:
1. Rooms are "big enough" but not huge
2. No microwave in rooms, but available in laundry room
3. No clothing drawers for long-term stays because the huge TV was given priority
4. It is a "Hotel & Swim Club" but the Phase 2 addition of the pool won't be completed in time for the 2026 gem show = no pool
Advice:
Bring your own K-cups if you like dark coffee (we bring Starbucks Sumatra) and pick up some half-and-half if you dislike powdered non-dairy creamer.
