great locationmildew all overtiny toilet
the location was great across from the guggenheim museum.
I found the room not well-kept. the wooden platform in the bathroom felt grubby with mildew all over. also, the toilet was so tiny i needed to contort myself to close the door. I didn't want to touch the door, wall or toilet bowl. the hotel photos made it look better than it really is.

mixed feelings about my stay

broken blinds
the staff was cute at check-in and provided a map with food recommendations.
My room was not up to standard. It was small and noisy, and some things were broken. the blinds and extractor fan did not work. A street party with loud music outside my window kept me awake. i asked reception to have security address it, but they were unhelpful.
