We stayed in the Octagon, a beautiful old building with charm and spacious rooms. The staff was friendly and helpful. Although breakfast was included with our room rate, the food was not good. On weekends there's a meager continental breakfast with onion bagels and chalky pastries. During the week there is a "hot" breakfast that adds prefab scrambled eggs and dry breakfast meats.
We called at 9:00pm needing a room at the last minute and the staff was very helpful. The hotel was clean (we walked in our room and remarked how clean it smelled) there were comfy beds, and a nice view. Overall, we were extremely pleased with our experience here.
Not fancy but good value. Friendly staff. The hotel is surrounded by a large grassy area which keeps it quiet. Despite that only a 5 minute walk from the light rail station and restaurants.The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Weekend breakfast is basic carbs, better on weekends but doesn't open till 7:30.
The good: It is a beautiful location and an awesome value. Room was clean and nicely appointed with more electrical outlets than any hotel room that I've stayed in recently. Bathroom was very clean. Nice balcony/patio with chairs and table. Room was quiet and no bad smells.
The bad: The furnishings are a bit dated, the tv was tiny, and the mattress was sad. I could see the depressions of every guest who stayed here in the past. No kidding.
Conclusion: I would definitely stay here again.
Great place with a very friendly front desk! Always smiles to make you feel welcomed back! At one point we needed some extra towels so we asked them, and they informed us they were fully booked at the time and doing their best to receive and clean towels from rooms and would get us them as soon as possible. They got them to us in time, which we never expected but they did and I was very grateful! The employees really care about their job and the people who stay there.
