A good place for a brief stay
This hotel is ok for 1or 2 night stay . The room is very small and the AC was loud all day long so it is not comfortable for staying longer. The staff are very friendly and the room is clean . They did allow me to check in earlier which really helped.

Nice hotel. It is a micro hotel so the rooms are super small. But it had a nice lounge on the first lobby floor, down in the basement a whiskey bar, and on the top of the roof another nice little outdoor indoor bar. The hotel is secure. You need to use your key to get in to the hotel or press the button for assistance. You also need to use your key for the elevator. The outside is not the greatest area, but it’s not the worst either. If I was alone, I might feel a little uncomfortable, but with another person or group it’s fine.

Great location. Plenty of restaurants in the area. I like that you had to use your key to enter the building and to get on the elevators. So, it felt very safe. Employees were excellent and always helpful. The room was a little small, but very clean. My room was in the front of the hotel, and there was noise on Saturday evening. However, they included in sound machine in the room. Temperature regulated easily. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to anyone.

Excellent except for street noise on the weekend
This was my first time staying in a micro hotel, and I would definitely stay again! The staff was courteous and texted about the stay along the way. Great amenities, and they maximize every part of the room, and I love the smart TV so I could watch Netflix. They have an ironing board and iron by request, however the steamer in the room worked perfectly. I almost gave it 4 stars for comfort because of the street noise, but overall it was a comfortable hotel. I stayed in a room facing the street and the street noise was exceptionally loud with motorcycles and booming music on the weekend which made it quite difficult to sleep. They do provide a white noise machine, which helped a bit however if I return to the area I would stay here again except ask for a room that doesn't face the street. Also, the size may be challenging for a couple so just a cautionary note to pay attention to the room size when making a reservation. I was a solo traveler on this trip and I enjoyed the coziness.
