Great location and style, but some growing pains.
Now Now is a good choice for solo travelers who want a well-designed hotel in a prime location. The aesthetic is great and the vibe is modern and clean.
However, there are some things that need improvement. I only received housekeeping 3 out of 8 days, even though daily towel service and sheet changes every 3 days were promised. The acoustic baffles help, but loud door locking mechanisms and shared bathroom layouts make noise an issue, especially in the south wing. Unlike the north wing, there is no separation of the bathroom/shower/sink from guest rooms and you will hear them in use. IMO the south wing rooms should be offered at a discount since they are noisy, fewer amenities, and less desirable.
There are more showers/bathrooms in the basement, but you have to go downstairs and through the lobby to use them. That is also the only location to use the Dyson hairdryer if you stay on the south wing. Additionally, the shower rooms are big and stylish but the shower heads are small and low-flow water efficient so I was often cold taking a shower. I was grateful for the provided robe.
I do wish they offered social elements like bar hopping, meetups, etc. kinda like a hostel to meet fellow solo travelers. They also charge for locker use to store items upon checkout which was disappointing.
Overall, a solid place to stay and I would stay again but wouldn’t pay over $120 nightly for the cozy sleeper cabin.
