The location is very convenient to downtown. I have stayed here many times usually through discount web services like hotwire or priceline, but the room I get never really matches the rest of the hotel or the other ratings posted on the site. The room always has old furniture, not so comfortable beds at the back-end of the hotel. I chalk it up to either the discount/or the fact that I am a younger (20 somethings) guest...either way if not for the courteous serivce from the staff and location my experience would be rated poor.
