The place is pretty hip and centrally located, but … the area right around it is a bit iffy with strange homeless people and possible drug users. The place itself certainly does have a smell … and since the windows don’t open, you are stuck with it. The bed is terribly uncomfortable and the shower is poorly laid out (can’t even put the soap anywhere). Don’t get me wrong, it’s accurately described and a good deal (even has some views), but I personally wouldn’t stay there again.
