Each room at this hotel features a flat-screen TV with cable channels. Select rooms include a seating area to relax in after a busy day. All rooms come with a private bathroom equipped with a shower that includes guest bath robes and free toiletries. We loved our time at this hotel, it’s in a great location in the gas lamp district. Our dog was made to feel like an extra guest and got a welcome pack of freebies! The bed was the comfiest we’d ever slept in, it definitely makes getting up in the morning a struggle!
