Hotel Whitcomb

If you don't mind getting mugged and or harrased by bums then the Hotel Whitcomb is for you.

One of their bellhops an older black man acts as if he is trying to hussle you and depending on the time of day the hotel staff is horrible.

rooms are ok, but the carpet looks like it hasn't been cleaned in 100 years.

Odd smell in some of the rooms too, I had 5 rooms (business group) some had the smell some did not.

We had been drawn in by - I admit - a sale, but even that was far too much. The Hotel Whitcomb is nothing more than a Motel 6 with fancy architecture, which is truly a shame. While it claims three stars, it barely deserves one. The hotel staff was rude, utterly unhelpful and very clearly do not understand the hospitality industry.

If you're curious, book at a real hotel, and simply drop by to view the architecture, or better yet, save yourself a headache and give this place a miss altogether.

It is surprisingly quiet in the rooms considering that you are in the middle of the city.

It is a beautiful old building. All the people were friendly and the rooms were large and clean. The hotel was close to public transportation.

It's a decent hotel in a great location for a decent price. There was also very little traffic noise, which was a pleasant surprise.
