9.8/10 Exceptional! (2,425 reviews)

The second floor dining area was the best option - especially for Brunch. Wait staff was attentive and accommodating. They had a DJ and that was pleasant. Pizza available in the downstairs lobby in the evening from the Proof Pizza next door was fast and easy. The bands they have in the Lobby nightly are usually very good. The focus on Art was cool. They offered a ukulele and record player in the room along with Albums to play. More of a gimmick, but a cute idea. Will likely stay again mostly because of location and ease of parking. We had a rowdy neighbor the first night and it seemed we could hear a little too much of that. The rooms are very clean and offer a refrigerator and large windows to see the city outside. Overall a nice experience.

The room was great, location was perfect. I loved the loft vibe and exposed brick. It would have been a 5 star review if the TV was working. We couldn't get the TV to turn on.
