The hotel staff were warm and welcoming. The hotel couldn’t help it but there was street noise with people cursing and yelling due to a club next door past midnight. It made it difficult to get sleep.

No Parking and a 2:00am Fire Drill
This is not a great hotel if you drive to it. There is no hotel parking nor valet service. You have to go down the block to a parking garage. While the vibe is kind of cool, closer inspection makes you think the rooms were designed by a rookie design student, the stuff just doesn’t fit together. While it was clean, it was not well kept. Our bathroom showed signs of lots of moisture problems and taking a shower resulted in a quart of water on the floor. There was a non-stop beeping throughout the night but we could never find the source. Then there was the 2:00am fire alarm that shut off after 5 minutes once we were on the way down the steps. At the price point, this was a disappointment, I would not go back even though we loved where it was located.
