6/10 Good

Too many cons than pros
Bed was comfortable enough, but we didn’t like the barn door for the bathroom because of the lack of privacy. Also because the shower door was an open style, the water splashed on the floor during every shower. We also had to have the key cards re-keyed four times in the two days we were there. The area in front was so congested with traffic and homeless that it made our coming and going very stressful.

Everything was great. The valet/bellmen were especially nice and friendly with good recommendations for where to go around the city. Only complaint is that the fridge was not working and there was a tear in the sheets when we got there. Other than that, everything was great.

Prime location
I had a fantastic experience at the Alan Hotel. Although my stay was brief, I truly appreciated the friendly and efficient staff, from the valet to the front desk, who made the check-in and check-out process seamless. While I had read some concerns about the area, the hotel’s convenient location and easy access to nightlife made it worthwhile. The complimentary voucher was a nice touch, and I’m already looking forward to returning for a longer stay.
