"As a solo traveller, I booked a Single room at the Paramount Hotel going by photos alone. I later checked (as it was a rushed trip ) the reviews and saw some particularly negative reviews, but I am happy to say that, I personally had a very positive stay..
My only two quibbles, if you can call it that was the fact that
1, a previous guest had pulled the power cable for the TV. (Made no difference to me as i only used the room to sleep and bath.
2, the Plug for the sink was missing. (This is me having to search for something.
Other than that, I have no complaints.
Was it noisy from street traffic, yes..but thats to be expected for the city that never sleeps. I had difficulty one night then threw my ear buds in (always be prepared)
On to the positives.
1, location.
2, the main enterance/bar is uniquely decorated and i loved it. With bright neon colour lights. Great seating and secure lifts.
3, staff were all friendly when spoken with.
4, my bed in room 617, sublime. I was so comfortable
5, city tax i think was 165 and a dollar for a security/ charge for the room. (Deposit)
6, clean and tidy.
