The room was beautiful and well appointed. I agree with some others that the curtains need to be darker bc the sun blasts into the room in the morning on this side of the building (we were in the Will room). Refrigerator was making some kind of high-pitched whining when we got in after our concert (after midnight) so we had to wear ear plugs to sleep…and the wooden bed frame is very creaky when your partner rolls over. It was very comfortable though and the amenities were terrific. Getting room access was super easy once we located the entrance door. Loading zone was taken when we arrived, but we were able to pull in at the next block to unload.

We appreciate your honest feedback, Jennifer, and for bringing your concerns to our attention. Any maintenance will be addressed, and if we have the chance to have you back in the future, we recommend booking a front facing suite, as these rooms feature black out curtains. Thanks again.

Such a special special special place. Gorgeous interior design and so my heart and thoughtfulness in the rooms. Super cool overall hospitality concept. Every detail was thorough and perfectly placed. Luxe without feeling stuffy. Lived in and homey while still being organized and subtle. Neighborhood was great and the in room guide was like your best friend giving the “lokal” scoop on where to go/eat/see. Couldn’t have been happier…unless an elevator could be added for carrying my kiddos belongings up the narrow and steep stairs. All part of the period-appropriate charm!

I love the whole "self check-in" option. I received all the info needed to access the building and room ahead of time and getting in was no problem. The "room" is bright, airy, and spacious; a cute studio apartment basically. We only stayed a night but it has everything you'd need for a longer stay, including a W/D. Located in a great part of town, with parking and lots of places to eat within walking distance. Would definitely stay again!

One of a kind experience where you don’t have to check in with any concierge, but touch pad to get in. Beautiful decor, super informational with booklets around the room to show what’s good in the area and ontop of their customer service. Highly suggested to anyone!

We loved our stay here and wish it could have been longer! The room was so perfect. It was beautiful and had everything you could need to make it feel like home: from blankets, to a selection of teas, to shower products that I’d actually want to use. We went to the Sassafras market to pick up food to make for dinner, and the kitchen was fully equipped for what we purchased. I was so impressed by this place and we will definitely be back!
