Some maintenance issues
Although the hotel is clean and comfortable, guests do raise occasional concerns about the level of on-going maintenance. It doesn't seem like anything will ruin your stay, but you may notice minor issues such as chips and scratches on walls and worn carpets.
negative:
Neighborhood may not suit at night
While the proximity of this hotel to attractions appealed to many guests, some found the immediate neighborhood felt a little unsafe at night thanks to abandoned buildings and homeless sleepers in the area. Female guests didn't want to walk alone at night.
negative:
Breakfast could be improved
The free breakfast attracts both positive and negative feedback. Many guests thought it was perfectly adequate, especially since it came at no cost. Others thought it was below average for the HIE brand and felt that it did not offer enough fresh fruit.
