"The elevator didn’t work we had to use the maintenance elevator"

Hotel Clariana

8/10 Good

"The staff was super friendly and the location is convenient, though there was significant street noise on Friday night even on the 5th floor. We are heavy sleepers so it wasn’t an issue for us. Bathroom was very clean and spacious- one of the better hotel bathrooms I’ve had at this price range! Bed was comfortable but pillows too big. Coffee pods were not replenished and dirty cup was left, but towels were changed and bed was kind of made. Fitness room has a good selection of free weights and two benches, no weight machines, two treadmills and a recumbent bike. Breakfast was passable."
