Great value and very well located
The location is superb and you can walk to many of the attractions. The staffs are incredibly helpful and friendly. While the room is a bit small, it is comfortable and quiet. I enjoyed my stay and had very restful sleep during my two nights stay in the hotel.

As-expected and good budget option
Room was as-expected. Just the basics with no frills, but looked like the photos and everything in the room was clean. The hallways and stairwells are definitely outdated and have a unique smell, but for a low-cost room in this area, it was sufficient. The staff are incredibly friendly and supportive.

It was ok until the last day. My room flooded because of person above me. They did not switch my room. Water dropped from ceiling in bathroom all night. The lady at front desk was quite helpful and friendly.

We felt very welcome and taken care off (we were allowed to check-in early). Everybody is so friendly. We liked the location. No car needed, we walked to the famous spots we had on our list and took public transport (a bus station is nearby). Our room was basic and clean.The attached retro Diner was a plus. Coffee maker was available on request. Great value.

The rooms are okay, but the hotel is old and dingy. Staff service was okay. I appreciate the fact that they gave me a refund when I decided to move to a better hotel.

The value for the property and the location is unbeatable. Yes, it’s an older hotel, so as many reviewers have commented, it has a bit of a musty smell in the hallways. The room, however, was clean, quiet and comfortable. Staff is super friendly. If you are looking for great value and a very accessible neighborhood I highly recommend the Touchstone Hotel.
