This hotel is located on Burnside, a very convenient location, which is a busy street but the traffic noise was not bad. What kept me up was the noise from the alley and people talking loudly on our floor until 3am. However, I think I’m getting old and no longer amused by 20-somethings returning from a night on the town. If I were young and fun, this would be an excellent choice. It was clean, close to coffee and restaurants (there are some VERY good ones within walking distance), and the staff seemed friendly and helpful.
