The location is absolutely perfect if you are attending a conference at the convention center. You are closer than most hotels (and it's easy...just around the corner). You also are closer to more local, fun neighborhood restaurants and bars in cap hill, as opposed to being with all the chains on the other side of the convention center. I'd absolutely stay here again if coming for a conference. If you like coffee, I'd bring some Via packets. There is a water kettle, but no coffee maker.
