I just spent 5 days there last week.

There is still some construction in the lobby area, but it's blocked off so there is no dust like when I was there in December. It's not constantly loud. I heard a saw once in 5 days when we were at breakfast. I don't think it can be heard upstairs, but nothing wakes me so I wouldn't know.

I enjoyed my stay. The room was very good, newly renovated. The mattress was new and very good, they actually have drawers and a closet for your clothes unlike a few other places.

The breakfast was good, pancakes, pinto, eggs made to order (with ham), toast, and fresh fruit.

I also saw one of the penthouses. They are HUGE. Includes large flat-panel TV, it looks very comfortable. The glass showers look cool and the balcony has a nice view of SJ.

Btw, there are pics of the penthouse in the gallery. El Silencioso posted some recently.

Been mentioned several times to the owner..., once all the construction is done, it is on the agenda....

I will be enjoying 311 nonetheless in about 4 days... :D :D

stayed in penthouse, bed on second floor up spiral staircase. poor water pressure is my only complaint. the owner is cool and from baltimore. the night clerk has been there 5 years with the prior owner wolfgang.

breakfast is good and hot. coffee is outstanding. street noise will get you up at 6 am unless you wear ear plugs. but that is just sj, in general. will open bar in 2 months. no chcia fee. no elevator, you have to hoof it.

penthouse was 100 plus tax. free breakfast. you are buzzed in and out which is a little annoying but that is how they do it. 90 second walk to SL. 0 minute walk to HDR.

great restaurant right across the street.

if your penis gets caught up in a pretzel the hospital is nearby.

Incorrect info here. To enter the hotel, slide your room key through magnetic reader on the gate for access. There is a buzzer on the left pillar in the foyer as you leave that unlocks the gate as well.

Is that was that's for? I kept sliding my card from the inside to open the door. I think I tore a ligament in my wrist doing so. :oops:

it is news to me. but, if you say so. everyone i saw waited for the clerk to buzz you in.

same with leaving.

no big deal, but the water pressure needs some work. at least on the top floor.

I heard they added a 13 dollar guest fee, and they increased the room from 50 bucks a night to 65 dollars a night. Is this true.
