The Maj is in a perfect location. Great neighborhood & walking distance to all museums. The hotel rooms are clean & very modern. Staff is young, tech savvy & helpful. No onsite parking, but a good, cheap lot 1.5 blocks away. Also free street parking, but hard to score a space during the day/

Room was clean and staff was extremely friendly and courteous. Hotel was small and quaint and perfectly suited for our needs. The down side is very limited street parking only. The amenities were sufficient. Very modern and located near the museum. Only a short drive to tourist attractions like Terminal Market, Pat's Steaks, Geno's and a lot of nearby shopping and eateries. Would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
