Besides the staff being fantastic, this will be my first and last time staying at the Alma. This is just another “boutique hotel” pretending to be something it’s not in the bad side of town, looking to separate customers from their money as quickly as possible. Be prepared to pay a $35 per day, “destination” fee, whatever that is. Oh and $70 a day to park your car. This is absolutely ridiculous. There’s nothing boutique or special about this place. It’s an old hotel with an air-conditioning that barely works and homeless and human waste all over the place right next to the light rail tracks with trolly cars that blast a super loud and obnoxious horn all morning and day until midnight that you can hear right through the closed windows. Budget in an extra $105 per night minimum in addition to what you paid for nightly. The staff were excellent, they are the best and only good part of this hotel.
