How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it. Read the reviews yourself on Google Maps.

Pretty decent little gallery. What's inside always changes. I got to go see some Senior thesis projects for some students who were attending Metropolitan University downtown. It was a very nice show. The building is very clean and does have bathrooms!
