Newly opened, which meant the restaurant and spa were not open. Expedia said there was onsite parking for $20, but there is only street parking we found ourselves

Some people are going to adore this place. The amenities and newness are beautiful, it's a great location, and everyone was so nice, and they left us a bottle of sparkling wine in our room upon check in - thank you! That being said... It is a boutique hotel, newly renovated building, but it's obvious the rooms are maximized for quantity, which really gives up on comfort. We got a king alley room (which isn't event he smallest sqft) and you could barely move around the bed, if we'd had more than weekend backpacks, IDK what we would have done. There is no bathroom fan or window. There is no room fan, and the minisplit is set to not allow air circulation (only hot or freezing air). The window is a foot from the bed so when it's below 40 out, we wouldn't sleep with the it open. I beg the developers to sleep here for a night and think about how people actually live.

Very new and very clean. Bar staff was top notch. The rooms were boiling hot and managment has the thermostats locked to heat only. Each room has its own split system so it makes no sense to have them locked...made the night unbearable with no sleep.

While I understand the hotel is new and working out some kinks, it was disappointing to know that after booking the spa and rooftop bar would not be open. Additionally, while the hotel has great aesthetics, the insulation is poor. We heard noise from all angels in our 3rd floor room. We heard hallway noise, we heard street noise, we heard noise from our neighbors in the other room, and we had to complain about the music vibrating from the lobby at 11 pm at night. Based on the insulation issues, we did not get the rest we went to get on our weekend getaway. Overall, the staff were great and we enjoyed the food and service at the lobby bar. So, while we don’t intend to stay there again, we would go back to chill at the lobby bar and check out the spa and rooftop when it opens.
