Fun quirky themed hotel. Great location to walkable eatery. Coffee nook is convenient for a morning grab. Rooms are okay but certainly not for guests who have high cleanliness standards. The bar is more of a dive bar feel with basic drinks in plastic cups; don’t expect luxury. Staff were very pleasant.
