Meade, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

One night family getaway.
We enjoyed our short stay here. Hotel service was excellent and conveniently located to downtown. We took a short walk to 6th street to enjoy sights and food. Area seemed secure overall and parking, although a bit pricey IMO, seemed safe. Our room was clean and had a great city view. A bit noisy at night if you’re a light sleeper but bed was comfortable. The shower was magnificent and refreshing. We do wish the room had an iron instead of a hand held steamer but does not keep us from wanting to return.

8/10 Very good

Location and parking good
Trying to be cooler than it really is. Rooms pretty small. Hardly any room to even open up two suitcases. Clean. Location not bad. Being able to park in local parking garage (paid separately) and not valet was a big plus for downtown
Steven, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the location and the staff was super friendly.
Frida, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Loud and near music venues
If you want to be close to the music scene, this hotel is for you. I came for a business trip. I am in my forties and I think the decor and amenities are more suited for people under thirty. The carpet in the rooms felt musty and I think they should have it updated. On the weekends or when they have special events, it is loud through the evenings. Staff was friendly including valet. There is a coffee shop in the lobby which was convenient.

I thought the reno was imaginative and the people who worked there very nice but the large encampment of unhomed people felt very comfortable strolling the property. My husband thought it felt shabby.
