Nice though small, had mechanical problems w drapes. Staff are great hotel beautifully decorated. There is a club on site so definitely loud at night on the street below. Lots of marijuana smoke, and had to call about the neighbors smoking a couple times because it was super skunky and totally invaded my room.

if you like nightlife, this is the hotel for you. my husband and i enjoyed the lobby bar, rooftop, speakeasy and the nightclub downstairs. our bartenders were friendly, helpful, and the other staff we interacted with were excellent as well. everything is self service, even getting towels etc. the juice bar was out of their signature juice which was disappointing but the food options were good. loved that it was next to a whole foods. they kept our luggage after checkout so we could explore. the room was spotless when we arrived. toilets were a bit uncomfortable. overall enjoyed the experience.

A no-contact check-in was not ideal. Secondly, the hotel was great - the rooms, not so much. I'd recommend this hotel to someone in their 20s.

Trendy, Modern, I giggled when I first arrived at the way the Loft Rooms "present themselves". It's nice. Blackout shades are excellent. The hallways are a little too dark - I know it's a vibe, but it creeps a woman out a little. That said, you can't get up the elevators w/o a room key. The rooftop bar and danceclub with a killer skyline view are great - Ricky, a bartender up there was fantastic. Also, Primo ran a very fun DJ set for us while we danced on the carousel, yes carousel. There's a little coffee shop w/ great baristas and decent prices. I'd definitely return.
