We visited our daughter who lives in the same building and found it the ideal place to stay. Nice running trail nearby and easy uber to coffee shops and restaurants. Will return for sure.

A/C issues Room did not stay cool. Had problems sleeping at night. Bathtub: It was difficult getting in and out due to the height of the tub. I do not have any medical issues that prevent mobility. Upon getting out, I fell. Mattress: It felt like I was sleeping on a box spring mattress. Upon arrival: I arrived earlier than expected. As a result, I waited in the lobby for 4 hours. There was poor communication from the front desk when room would be ready. I was told just to wait in the lobby. Not sure what VIP means, but was lacking overall experience.

Looks cool but not comfortable

The property is really cool. Overall decent decor and vibe. But the beds were horrible. Our king bed dipped in the middle. Thin mattress and slept at an ag angle. Also tired tiger bed and same experience. No cushion pillows were nothing and very cheap beds.
