Tiny but modern styling, very clean
Think European modern with this stay- tiny rooms with no where to put luggage, but modern and stylish designs (very Ikea-like). No coffee maker in the room. Very limited free street parking (like don't plan on it). Terrible experience at bar when we asked for ice (which is where you have to get it from, no guest accessible I've machines). Super rude lady when everyone else was very nice!

The room was great. We enjoyed our stay. The staff was kind and helpful. The room was spotless. The only negatives: There was no ice machine on the floor. The room did not have a coffee maker, iron or ironing board.

Very charming and kitschy place. I loved the arrangement of the rooms and the many options for light control made such a difference in my sleep quality (blackout curtains, gentle light colors over the shower that could be bright or dim, etc). The bed was very comfy and there were a variety of pillows on the bed. The shower was great and had an easily adjustable temperature. I even liked the in room toiletries (and I hate most hotel toiletries). The staff was amazing at every turn from the front desk to the canteen. This place was particularly great for solo travel.

Nice and modern hotel in quiet location but easy walk or scooter fun to capitol or other attractions. This hotel with small rooms are perfect for solo travelers . I don’t recommend for couples or families with children. Very modern and fun to stay for young adults . Check out at 11am and fee of $80 beyond 11am is ridiculous and that’s why I gave 4/5. Breakfast was included and it’s ok .. nothing special .

Check in was 'tedious' but fast. Self checkin was the bomb! :-) The room is basically a glorified ship's Non-working IPAD to run the A/C, or control TV. (They did not 'swap it out.' No coffee/tea maker Hard to get hot water for a shower. Non-existent LISTENING when I said do NOT clean my room... so my personal stuff was moved/thrown away FOR me when I still needed to attune to some of it!

Liked: Cleanliness
This was a clean hotel close to bus and subway stations. I liked the design of the lobby and interior of elevator and hallways. The reception layout was cool and modern however the receptionist needed more training and her interaction was not very professional. There were some smart features in the room that I liked. What I disliked about this hotel was that the room didn't have iron and it was very small that if someone from the other side of the bed needed to go to the restroom they needed to step on other person's legs. The restroom was very small and its door could not be closed completely which was not good. Generally this was a good hotel in terms of cleanness and some services. Our stay was fine there.
