We loved the historical aspect of the hotel and the staff was friendly but the room itself was dirty, had damage, and outside felt unsafe due to homeless and drunks. All situations were handled by local police but for the amount of money you pay, we felt that more could have been done for safety as well as upkeep with the room.

Not enough words to express how disappointed and let down about all the reviews that were given about The Alex Johnson Hotel. The lack of professionalism was not confined to just front desk staff, hotel servers or security. Very overpriced, extremely overrated!

very convenient to shops and restaurants. Loved having Starbucks attached. Their little shop saved me from having a wardrobe malfunction. Room had a nice view, staff was friendly. The only issue I had was the water pressure. At one point, the shower water completely turned off. It came back on so I could finish my shower. My husband did not experience any water issues except the sink hot water. I would stay here again.

Disliked: Amenities
Good: I absolutely LOVE this hotel. We used to stay here somewhat regularly. Now it's not as common. It is a vintage hotel with a modern luxury feel to it. Beds are comfortable. Everything is well kept for the most part and up to date. Staff are usually awesome. The view from the top is also next level. We will return. Bad: This hotel pulls out every trick in the book to nickel and dime customers. For starters I pre-paid for our visit, so price was final. However after our stay I noticed an additional charge to my card listed as a "marketing fee". As well as this hotel does not have free parking even though it's listed as an amenity. You can either pay $29 for valet, or mess around with meters and having to wake up at 7 to start your meter session. Also, rooms are much smaller than they appear on the website. Area around the hotel has become somewhat sketchy lately at night. So overall, hotel could be more upfront on the parking issues, and just charge a full cost. Stop with this "after the fact" fees. If you want to be a cheap hotel, then just be a cheap hotel. However, when it says Hilton, I expect Hilton quality, and I'll pay for that. Pretending to be both is why this hotel has so many negative reviews. I just hate unmet expectations. If I expect parking to be dumb, I can live with it and plan ahead.

The old hotel was very clean, but this is the first room I've ever rented that did not have a chair in it. A $325 hotel room that did not provide a desk chair. Unbelievable!!! There was also an issue with one of the two elevators. The door wouldn't stay closed. A technician fixed it. It's only a matter of time before that elevator malfunctions again. Some poor soul might get stuck in it!

Hotel is probably the best in the area and they are investing in it but it's pricey for what you get. Bathroom was good and bed was comfortable. Housecleaning only straightened things - no vacuuming or cleaning the toilet. TV technology is at least 10 years old. Wifi works well. First night at the pub was super crowded and service was terrible, food was cold. Vallet parking is outrageous but on street way available and cheap. Parking app is super confusing - especially if you park in the garage where there is no code to enter. We parked at a meter all the rest of the time so we could get a code. Take a picture of the code so you can remember it the next morning.
