Very nice hotel, convenient location and friendly staff. Parking isn't included but I feel like getting parking through spothero was worth the location of the hotel. Super comfy beds and pillows! Would definitely stay here again.

The rooms are small with space used highly efficiently. You check yourself in and out. There are funky lights and interesting art all around. It sort of feels like capitalism trying to put on a human face but not quite pulling it off

My stay was great! The rooms are small but very cute and the way they manage the layout to fit all the things needed into such a small space is impressive. It was like a futuristic pod. I like how you can control everything with the little iPad - lights, colored mood lights, temperature, shades, TV etc. The best part is how dark it is with the shades down - perfect for great sleep. If I had to criticize a few things it would be 1. no coffee maker. I know this is becoming more common and I understand it's a lot for a hotel to stock and maintain every room with coffee. BUT usually you can ask for a coffee maker at the front dest if you are a person who really needs one first thing. I even saw the perfect spot to keep a very small one under the sink. They said no - nothing to lend me just for my room just during my stay. 2. Poor communication. Pool was closed which was annoying and no way to know. I went up to the top floor and through the door outside and the gate was padlocked. No sign that said something like "we apologize but the pool is closed because...." Just a padlock. Had to go back to my room and call the front desk and all they said is it's closed. So if the pool is important to you, check first if it'll be open during your stay because there is some issue with it. Otherwise my room was very clean, (the bar/lobby area a little less so) and the staff friendly. Overall a very nice experience.

Great use of space, small but thoughtfully designed. High end finishes were appreciated - had what looked to be Herman miller lights, hansgrohe shower fixtures etc. Comfy large bed, warm duvet. All around great stay. Clean, high tech, iPad controls were a really nice touch and could easily cast my own Netflix etc to the tv

One night only
Not what I expected. Definitely a one night only hotel, more hostel than hotel. The room was 8’x24’ at best. The king bed spanned the entire width of the room. As I am 6’6” my feet were on the far wall or my head was resting against the headboard. Other issue is that the person sleeping next to the window would have to crawl over the other person to get out of bed.it was very clean and a great location but just not for the two of us.
