Wonderful room, cool decor and such a neat building. The bed was super comfortable and the space to hang out in the room was relaxing. Location is perfect for browsing the shops and eating out. Using text to communicate with the concierge was also very convenient and easy.

Digital check in process was easy to do on my phone. The staff was helpful, it wasnt just automated. The building location was perfect for us to explore the town on foot. Parking was tricky, but they detailed your parking options well. Many food options nearvy. Good night life options even in off season. The building and room were immaculate with a luxery feeling. Music in the hallways, fresh paint, umbrellas by the door, free water station. There was green mountain coffee pods, not the usual hotel mud coffee. 15$ voucher to a nearby cafe was enough for two bagels and two small coffees. Overall, this place was amazing!

The room was exactly like the picture. Overall it was a very good experience. There’s no interactions with staff because everything is done online from checking in, paying for parking, upgrades if you decide to add and right down to checking out. No waiting in line. Many cute shops and restaurants are nearby.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Worst hotel experience ever. The self check in doesn’t work, no one to help. Rooms are so tiny you can’t fit more than a 1 person - terrible for couples. No parking and smelly rooms. Think of everything wrong with an AirBandB and with a tiny hotel with no staff, and you have this place. Biggest waste of money

Disliked: Amenities
The property overall was clean and nice as far as appearance goes, unfortunately that's where it stops. We were in a room that had NO windows, basically a cave with no natural light. Im not sure if all the rooms are like this, but certainly it was not mentioned while we were picking our room. The furniture in the room if you can call it that, was awkward and uncomfortable and not conducive to being able to enjoy some down time or relaxation. The noise was RIDICULOUS. We were on the top floor and it sounded like someone was running across the ceiling all night. Whether that was because of bad insulating or acoustics, probably both, my wife and I both suffered from very poor nights of sleep. Overall for the whole expierence I could not say it was a good value or even fair for the price. For the overall expierence, besides appearance, it was definitely not worth what we paid and would not recommend staying here
