Scene
Small, modern hotel with stellar central location
Set steps from the buzzing square that it gets its name, Tasso Suites is a small property that attracts travelers looking to be in the heart of the action. The four-story hotel has modern interiors, with an emphasis on white furnishings with pops of blue, pink, and gray. Guests enter the front doors to the small lobby, which houses the front desk, breakfast room, and benches. The space can feel a bit cramped, particularly in the mornings. From here, visitors can either take the stairs or elevator down one level to the spa, or up to the rooms and apartments. There's nothing else of note here, though tourists primarily come here for the location.
