Acceptable, but Room Quality Lacked

uncomfortable bed poor pillows
The hotel is in a good location near the Playhouse.
The room did not meet my expectations compared to other hotels. I have stayed in better rooms. The bed was hard and uncomfortable. The pillows were not good. The staff did provide extra pillows promptly when requested.
