The location, breakfast buffet and surrounding restaurants were good. It’s a unique hotel with a different vibe. Overall we enjoyed our stay. The only con was the A/C in our room didn’t work well and couldn’t be adjusted, so we didn’t get much relief from the heat.

Good place to stay for a night

The hotel has some weird decor like beads hanging outside the rooms and elevator. Besides that the room is spacious and comfortable. It was quiet during the night and in a good neighborhood.

Loved this place. Fun lighting and room entries. Close to everything. I would stay again. The only thing we noticed was an acetone type smell, I think they may have been painting or something. It didn't impact our stay, thankfully.
