Best value for families — Room, 2 Double Beds and Room, 2 Queen Beds
If you’re traveling with kids or need extra sleeping space without booking a suite, Room, 2 Double Beds and Room, 2 Queen Beds are the practical choices.
Up to two children 17 and under may stay free using existing bedding, so these room types keep costs lower while fitting more people comfortably.
- Room, 2 Double Beds — sleeps multiple guests with two double beds

| Room, 1 King Bed | Solo travelers or couples | Standard king layout without extra beds |
Best corner / city-view option — Room, Corner
Room, Corner is the choice if you want a room with an angled layout and potentially larger windows or more natural light compared with standard interior rooms.
Corner rooms often feel roomier and can provide better city views; they’re a good upgrade if you’ll spend time in the room looking out over the Warehouse District.
- Bed: 1 King Bed
- Better daylight and windows compared with some mid-block rooms
- Good for photos, longer daylight work sessions, or light sleepers who prefer views
| Consideration | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Window placement | Corner rooms typically have windows on two walls |
| View | Potentially clearer sightlines over the neighborhood |
| Noise | May be quieter than rooms facing the main street, depending on orientation |
Deluxe Room vs. Room, 1 King Bed — which to pick?
Deluxe Room is useful when you want slightly more space or upgraded furnishings compared with a standard Room, 1 King Bed. Exact differences vary by inventory and availability, so compare photos and bed layouts when booking.
If price is the main concern and you don’t need extra seating, Room, 1 King Bed will cover the basics: a king bed, standard amenities, and complimentary Wi‑Fi.
- Deluxe Room — 1 King Bed; typically larger or with more seating than the base king room
- Room, 1 King Bed — straightforward king layout and the standard hotel offering
- Check for corner or balcony availability if the Deluxe room inventory includes those options
| Room | When to choose |
|---|---|
| Deluxe Room | You want extra seating or a slightly larger footprint |
