It’s basically a motel 6 with an ikea makeover. Looks cool and hip in the pics, but not so much. The “pool” is a joke. It’s a long skinny hot tub/water feature. It is as 90 degrees outside and the hot tub was hotter. Located on the main drag, need to walk a few blocks to restaurants or anything cute. It is super close to the Guild theater which is why we were there (seeing the Old 97s). So…if you are looking for basics, no frills, with a little makeover, this is the place. Buts definitely not boutique chic.

Room had an off-putting smell. Pics of the hotel suggest it’s more luxe than it is. But location is great if you are heading to the Guild or nearby eateries.

This is called a hotel, however the rooms are accessed outdoors which makes me feel uneasy. I was able to hear every single step every single flush and every single shower from the room directly above me. The walls must be very thin because I was able to hear everybody walking outside of the room as well. The hotel does not pay attention to detail because many items in the room were worn, had tears and unclean. The pictures online are a bit deceiving because it looks very new and updated. However, the rooms no longer look new and poorly maintained. The bathroom door did not close all the way, The walls were dirty, The chair in the room was torn. The bathroom mirror looked like it had not been cleaned in weeks, And was not cleaned a while at my stay either. The Expedia app said this was a four-star hotel, but it is a two maybe three star at best. It looks like an old Motel 6 that was renovated with the bare minimum.

We arrived at 10pm and they had no record of my reservation despite booking it 6 weeks previously and Expedia having taken payment. They managed to accommodate us after a lot of back and forth but it was a temporary room and we had to move the next day. Our new room had a broken closet and when the shampoo dispenser didn't work and I tried to take the bottle off to use it directly, they accused me of breaking it and that I should have asked for help. The manager said she would waive the charge for the repair. Not sure how I would have called for help while standing in the shower. Despite all of this we made the most of it but my biggest issue was on our last day I made four requests for housekeeping to clean my room and they never came. On the final request, front desk told me the cleaners had all gone home. No apology whatsoever. The included breakfast was decent but they were always slow to refill it and I felt it was because they were waiting for the time to run out so they wouldn't have to. Regarding the lost reservation I feel both Expedia and the Hotel were pointing fingers at each other. They have refused my request for a refund.

Didn’t like - no elevator Liked - breakfast Liked - location Liked - people at reception were nice Didn’t like - wake up call didn’t work twice, neither did alarm clock in room
