This property is exceptionally cute- the decor is funky, cozy and unique. A downside to all of the fabric however, was the clear collection of dust on the headboard and chairs. The bathroom also could have used a deeper clean, including a refill of the products (shower gel was completely empty). The shower had great water pressure and the roof top bar a nice view. Overall a nice stay for the price. I would happily stay again.

Parking is Difficult

Nothing bad to say about the hotel in general. The Restaurant / Bar on the 10 floor is very nice - Great view of campus. The only realistic parking option is valet - unless you are interested in walking 1/2 mile. This does add to the cost of the stay - and a tip will be requested for each in and out. I also found a deep ding on my car when it was returned.
