Beautiful room, comfy bed and super cool atmosphere. It’s pricey however! Also, we were on the 6th floor and could hear the rooftop bar. We could also hear our neighbor snoring amongst other things.

The hotel has a cool whiskey boutique feel, but it seems like all of the time and money was spent on the design and the ball was dropped on a bunch of basic structural things and educating the staff. I asked 3 different staff members (valet worker and 2 of the info desk workers) the price of the flat lot parking in order to determine if the valet price was worth it. Each person gave me a different price. Seems like that should be basic knowledge. I then asked the check-in staff for the hours for the gym, and they had no clue. Mind you, besides the gym, the only other establishments with hours are the 2 restaurants. So, pretty basic. The next morning, I wake up and head to the gym early, where the lights turned on as I walked in. I hopped on the treadmill, but 15 minutes into my run, the lights automatically turned off. Had to get off the treadmill to turn the lights back on, to which they turned off on me again 15 minutes later. Then, I took a shower, and when I came out, due to the shower construction, the floor was flooded. Tried cleaning it up with towels, but there was too much water. I went down to the front desk to inform of the gym and shower issues. They looked at me strange, and didn't even ask for my room number to help clean up the flooding - so I specifically asked that they did. Next morning, the same issues occurred. I again told the front desk, to which I was given the same ambivalent response. Really needs to work harder on the 'hospitality' aspects.

Great location for access to state routes, restaurants and landmarks. Within walking distance to Distillery Row with bourbon flights and good food available in several spots. Granddam restaurant was very good with generous portions and a great wine list. Lobby bar was a nice setting with great cocktails and bourbon choices.

Very nice hotel in a renovated industrial building. The interior design and decor is very tasteful with darker hues making for cool, comfortable vibe. The staff was great . Avoid rooms on the 6th floor on the south side due to noise from the club above.
