  Found a bed bug. Rooms need good cleaning and sanitation and it's noisy neighborhood at night, some kind of bad behavior going on out there.

  It is a charming hotel with a fantastic location. The only problem has been with service. I didn't find the front desk staff overly professional or helpful. for example I have been trying to speak to a manager but have not yet received a callback after three times I have asked. The overall lack of urgency and willingness to help is dissapointing.

  Stayed here twice and the pictures are the second room. The room is clean with a balcony. Cannot be better within this pleasant fall weather.

  Fantastic service above and beyond. Event hall was a perfect classic feel with the library/archive feel. location is perfect for students/alumni, but keep expectations leveled as the rooms are on the older side and feel "vintage" with no AC so be prepared. Aside from that, a few minutes walk to downtown and neighboring to the UC is obvious plus.

  I booked a stay here and it was totally worth it. It has charm, not your cookie cutter hotel stay. The price was was reasonable, considering that it is a step away from CAL. The staff was super nice. Everything was clean and no "old" hotel smell. No air, but there is a fan and great French doors to open up for fresh air. No elevator, but who cares with all the charm and I needed to exercise. The bathroom in my room was tiny but totally whimsical. Wondered who used it in the past. Maybe a nursery bathroom ? If you read the history about this hotel, it housed a nursery. I have been staying in numerous airbnbs and hotels lately and this one is sure to be on my favorite list. They also give you a coupon for breakfast next door at the Strata Cafe. One amenity that was missing that could have stepped it up a notch, would have been a minifridge with ice- cold water.
