Great location - but room needed repair
I love the location of the Penny, and the staff is great. This was my second stay, the first being a few months back. The rooms are cute and clean, with a few notable design flaws. I got the same room each time, identifiable by the broken reading light hanging from the headboard. I was surprised to see it again, months later, still visibly broken. It made me wonder if this room is kept in ratty shape and just rented out to hotel tonight and hotel.com customers? This time though, the automated blind was also broken and could not be lowered. I was exhausted and coming down with something (had lost my voice and could barely speak), so I told the front desk about the problem but couldn't wait for them to send a technician. I wasn't confident that they'd be able to do so quickly, and I just had to get to sleep.

Cute, stylish, but a little too pricey ....
We had a credit of $100 for food, but the restaurant was given over to a private party and horribly noisy and not fit for dining. Could not use credit for breakfast because we needed to leave before 9am and breakfast wasn't served until 9am.
