The facilities were nice. The atmosphere was unique. Plentiful free breakfast included. Many convenient eating or shopping places within a reasonable (walkable) distance. I wish we couldn't hear the neighbors next to us with a locked adjoining door, but that's not too unexpected for a hotel.

Excellent stay!

We had an excellent stay at Element! The hotel was clean, beds comfy and spacious, and customer service was great. We love the outdoor hot tub when it was a cool night. There are also many chairs, tables, and fire tables in the courtyard that would be nice to use when it is warmer out. Staff were courteous and friendly and breakfast was very good.
