The good: Fun, funky old building close to downtown. The history of the place is interesting to read about (lots of info on the walls). Check-in was very easy and the host responded immediately to any questions. Also a good value compared to other places that I saw.
The bad: The building is at a major entry point into the downtown area, and the sound of police sirens, cars and trucks was present until very early in the morning. The building itself is also surrounded by parking lots, and people coming/going to their vehicles in the middle of the night. The sodium lights of the parking lot came through the blinds so that the room was still lit by an orange glow even with the lights out. If you are a light sleeper (as I am) you might look elsewhere.
