Executive Hotel Pacific
AC wasn't working on a 80-degree day, and window won't open. When we told the staff, they sent up a mediocre fan that only circulated the hot air inside the room. It was like sleeping in a sauna, Location is great, but the stay was not comfortable at all.

The Paramount Hotel
The room was very clean, quiet, spacious. Great location and less expensive than the hotel across the street. One of two elevators was out of order. There is only complimentary coffee before 7 am. After that you have to pay at the expensive cafe.
