"Negatives: The room is so small it was hard to use the desk. So small there was no table to eat on. Had a broken toilet seat that was the wrong size. Images on line made the space look more luxurious. Positives: The room was very clean. The building is reasonably secure. The workout gym is amazing. The business space is very functional, quiet and inviting. Communication with management was efficient (but impersonal). I would consider using the company again."

Hotel St. James

Hotel St. James

8/10 Good
"The location was perfect for the purpose of our trip as it was only a short walk to the Morgan Library and other attractions we were visiting. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was basic but clean and the air conditioning worked well. The hotel is older and while it shows some wear & tear it’s not being neglected. We arrived on an early flight and the front desk let us drop our luggage off so we could hit the sites prior to checking in. There aren’t many “amenities” hence the low score for that category but the hotel served our needs for this trip and I wouldn’t mind staying there again."
