Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The room itself was mostly good - the shower was a standout. Normally I struggle with water pressure in a hotel but this one had a little wand you could move around to reach where needed. I wish the room had a little more traditional storage, there was really only space to hand things & no drawers. Moxy had a lot of little conveniences that made this a comfortable stay - easy to get extra towels, nice restaurant, water filling station in the hall, multiple lighting options in the room to get the right ambiance. Overall, I would stay again!

Front desk staff weren’t that friendly or helpful. In order to purchase anything from the snack section you have to wait for a bar tender to appear free and pay attention to you. Zero amenities in the room and the beds weren’t very comfortable. However the gym was amazing and the lobby is a fun spot to hang out.

The staff is amazing. Everyone of them went above and beyond. Could not do enough for us. Only downside was limited places to store clothing etc. no cupboards or closets. Just hangers beside the tv. Would have been ok for one or two nights. Great shower. Comfortable bed. Not in the most convenient area.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Where to start? Our first view was a facade crammed between two other buildings at an angle. Checkin was crowded, with too many people in too small a space. When I asked if there was a view, the check-in person said, "That's not a thing". Snarky, but accurate. The tiny and cluttered room had a small window looking out at the side of one of the neighboring buildings and a gravel flat roof. On top of all of this, the price was ridiculous--the hotel evidently taking advantage of a busier than usual weekend to hike the prices. The only bright spot was that the breakfast wait staff were all very nice.
