We were in town for a convention and this was one of the recommended hotels. While being located close to the conventions center made it a short walk, (no shuttle service due to the proximity of the hotel) it was kind of dicey with all of the transients nearby. It seems like there is a group that feeds them in a lot behind the hotel, pretty sketchy back there. We weren't sure about the parking so we valet it when we checked in, the employees there were quick to retrieve the car when needed. The front desk staff were all very helpful and friendly, there had been a computer glitch when we checked in so they couldn't activate our keys and we had to be "escorted" in let in to our room.....that was all fixed upon returning from an exploratory walk to the convention center. The hotel itself seems to be a refurbished factory, or some similar type of structure, seemed industrial and transformed into a hotel....that was interesting, different than what I am used to and if you like that sort of redevelopment this place is for you!!!!! Concrete floors in the room were different but that is part of they type of building it is...kind of a loft, and plenty roomy inside. The staff were all great, parking was ok, the hotel itself while being different than I am use to was still good. The problem I had was the area, so many homeless hanging everywhere it was uncomfortable to have to walk to the center.....I would probably stay at one of the hotels connected to the convention center next time,
