Quick Visit, Comfy stay.

Spent a quick night there. Cool vibe, fun decorations. The staff was friendly and rooms were clean. Would like fluffier pillows but the rest was great. Also, brighter light in the room would be nice. The smart tvs worked great too.

Great hotel for a couple getaway. The room was clean and modern. The hotel in general has a very cool vibe. It is very artsy and the concept is great. We had a small issue with our room at check-in, but when we brought it up to the front desk it was fixed right away.
