It is run down, I’ve stayed in other rooms that were more kept up. It is an updated old hotel and the room we stayed in felt old and not very kept up. It needed some more renovations. In the past I’ve stayed in rooms that were more in keeping with th Kimpton brand, the company that used to own it.

“fantastic hotel”
Hotel was good, staff was friendly, it was clean. I would recommend anyone stopping here to go to the bar. Staff were always happy to serve and loved a good conversation with you.

“Room with a loud background motor noise.”
A lot of noise in the room, not coming from my AC but another loud motor somewhere in the building. Asked several times but nothing was done about it. I also had a few ants, one was on my back during the night.
