Seville Plaza Streetcar Hotel Museum District, Trademark
staff was great. Not enough towels in the room for 2 people, faucet ran into mirror and wouldn't turn all the way on, toilet ran for 5 minutes before it turned off, sheets were not put on the bed correctly and came off in the night on one bed. I appreciated getting an extra blanket as my roommate ...
