Frommer's Review

This all-suite hotel has a rare combination of advantages: a superb central location; solid, quiet rooms; fully equipped kitchens in every unit full of housewares and with dishwashers and automatic ice makers; generous amenities; and rates competitive for this area of town. The hotel lacks much of a lobby, as the main entrance and handicap entrance lead directly into a stairway or hallway; that's because it is a reincarnation of an old concrete apartment building. But the rooms and tiled bathrooms are quite large; decorated in a trim, subdued style with fine cabinetry; and immaculate. Despite the full kitchens, I've never noticed odors in the many rooms I've checked on several occasions, which is remarkable. Also, despite the kitchen, they serve a free continental breakfast in the morning (and deliver the newspaper). Every unit has a bedroom and a queen-size sofa sleeper in the living room.

Facilities:
Business center; coin-op laundry

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
