I was at the Vagabond for a 8 night stay. The staff there was friendly and accommodating. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Nothing too special, but for the price they're fine. Shops and restaurants are within walking distance. Free internet, breakfast, pool, small workout facility. Everything you need at a good price. BUT FRIDAY and SATURDAY nights do not expect to sleep unless you are an extremely heavy sleeper. Vagabond shares a parking lot with Denny's, which I guess happens to be "the place to be" from midnight - 3am on Friday and Saturday nights. The parking lot, which is directly below the rooms on one side of the hotel, becomes full of people. And they are partying. Cars bump and blast music. They peel out of the parking lot. There's yelling, talking, confrontations, dancing . . . It's surreal how crazy the parking lot becomes. We called down to the front desk because we could not sleep and we are in town on business. The front desk was certainly courteous and understanding, but didn't help in any way. We asked if we could move to a room on the other side of the hotel, just to sleep for a few hours. Our request was denied. Unless we wanted to move all of our stuff to another room at 2am, we couldn't move just to get some sleep. The front desk said it happens every weekend, "that's just the way this city is." Too bad nobody bothered to mention this minor detail when I booked my entire company there. Seriously the worst two nights of sleep I've ever had. But other than that, the hotel is great. If you're staying during the week, it's fine. If you plan on staying over the weekend REQUEST A ROOM ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HOTEL. Trust me.
Pros: Comfortable, clean rooms. Friendly staff. Great value.
Cons: Friday and Saturday nights are insane. Don't expect to sleep.
