Hotel is nice and clean and a great location. However it is very noisy. I could hear everything happening in the other rooms around mine- from a dog barking non-stop to the conversations happing in other rooms like they were in mine.

It was a nice place. Furniture is minimal- no table to use a computer or set things down. There was one small bench. They had great beds and bedding. Not many frills but we slept well and it was quiet. Breakfast was very basic.

Minor challenge for front desk person to keep services in morning breakfast area stocked(water for coffee supplied) due to multiple responsibilities for her. The hotel was near capacity due to concert the 7th, she was very pleasant only needed a few more assistance to do it all

This hotel was extremely clean and quiet. Also had fantastic towels! The bed sheets, however, were some of the worst I’ve ever experienced. They were very rough and coarse. I’m not one to really care about sheets, but these are especially bad. Breakfast was continental and minimal. Decor is great! Nice large room and great walk in shower that was lovely. Overall, a great stay and would stay there again!

The check in was a little clunky. Received lots of emails and texts about check in and stay, but then when I got there she told me it showed I had checked in already. The pictures for the hotel show this great view but I was on the main floor and my room had one tiny window that gave it the feel of staying in someones basement. Bathroom and shower very nice.

This hotel is very unique. The decor is fun. It was very clean. I guess they just opened 3 weeks ago so there is no sign out front yet, we drove right past it. The rooms on the 1st floor are partially underground so the window was higher than me so I couldn't see out. Rooms up on the other floors are probably better. I wouldn't plan on eating breakfast here - there were just some bagels/doughnuts, granola bars and yogurt. But, it's close to lots of good restaurants so you can eat breakfast out. We were able to walk downtown to the bars/restaurants for dinner. The staff was very friendly.

The building was interesting and the decor was fun. The tub and shower were amazing. The staff was helpful and friendly. I was underwhelmed at the breakfast options and the view from the third floor was not that great. The cost of the room was a little high in my opinion.
