Rooms are clean, the building and rooms feel secure with codes and locks. Building is furnished in a decent manner. Staff are helpful when asked about concerns. Local area is not too bad, very local to restaurants, bars and the zoo; only concern with the area is the 7eleven on the corner and the alleyway attracts the displaced. parking is very limited but kept clean and well lit.

What a wonderful place to stay for a solo stay! It was my first time doing a solo trip away. The only thing that was a bit of a let down was the shower. The way the shower is built allows water to flow out to the bathroom floor which ended up going to the main room. Other than that it was a 10/10 stay and would recommend to anyone!

Really great location and cool modern property. Was very clean and would definitely stay here again for a short visit. The only thing that was a surprise were the bathrooms; they’re a tad rustic (really small, surrounded by a plywood structure, no mirrors) so it’s kind of like a “glamping” experience in that sense. There are no full length mirrors in the space, but the beds are really comfortable. Great for a budget stay!

This was one of my favorite hotels I’ve ever stayed at! Beautiful building, great hotel room, simple check in. Cool neighborhood, close to many other great neighborhoods. My room was far larger than I imagined, felt very palatial. System for entering was simple, though I read the instructions too quickly and required some assistance (which was there when I needed). There’s a fantastic little restaurant on the street level - only open for brunch hours - which has great food and coffee, etc. I’ll go back for sure.
