It felt unsafe because of homeless and drugs passing close to front door. Though those hanging around did not cause any trouble at all. Just kind of surprising.

They were very friendly and helpful. When checking in the desk clerk went with me to my room to make sure I wouldn’t need help with getting my luggage in. They were very helpful when I accidentally locked my key in my room. It was in walking distance of different places to see.

One block away was where the homeless and addicts gather. Breakfast was meager. No coffee for both mornings we were there. No filter apparently. One morning no breakfast put out until 9 am. No one at desk when we returned from sightseeing . Had to wait awhile because front door was locked. This was before 8 PM The art work was delightful. Concept of the hotel is appealing but was not executed well.

The low rating around the property isn't really the property's fault, it's just the city's poor leadership letting crime and social decay flourish in the area The low rating for staff is due to two incidents; while still in bed mid-morning, WITH the "do not disturb" placard on the door handle, staff attempted to gain entry to the room for cleaning. I had to specifically yell at them not to come in, as I was still in bed. After leaving mid-morning to go out into the city, I left the "do not disturb" placard on the door handle. Despite this, cleaning staff still entered the room. I'm not saying anything was mishandled, but there was no need for the staff to enter the room and I'd have much preferred that they didn't -- THAT'S WHY I USED THE PLACARD. Most everything else was fine, but these are real basic things that need to be respected of your guests privacy.
