Not a good fit for me.

The contactless check-in and service made me feel that the place, while stylish, was sterile. It was a rainy day, and I was staying there due to a family emergency. I ate dinner in the rooftop bar, which would be nicer on a beautiful evening, but was very loud and understaffed. The salad was delicious, however. From about 10 pm to 3am an outdoor alarm was beeping. The room had shades but a nearby floodlight still lit the room. No breakfast is included.

There is a lot to like about this place. Large rooms, very clean, sleek designs, great rooftop bar, friendly staff, and great location. But they have some challenges on the IT side. When I received a text with my room number and a code to enter, it had me staying for two days, when in fact I had reserved the room for three days. A bit of a hassle to straighten that out. Then when I arrived, the code I have been given didn't work when I tried to enter my room. I went back to the lobby to speak to the staffer who then assigned me a different room and a different code. I should note he was very friendly and apologetic. The parking app also had some glitches, which actually prevented me from paying for parking one night (and worrying that I would get towed). The staffer I spoke to apologized and assured me I wouldn't get towed. Maybe I just had bad luck? It's a really nice place and a great vibe, but when the staff keeps apologizing, it's obviously not perfect!

this used to be a great property. the new no/ltd staff model is for the birds. barely any staff presence in lobby, no cleaning staff apparent at all, some car valets were sketchy (valet was wearing a doo rag when checking in at 9pm asking to take my car was a total no go for me, and it would be a nonstarter to even go in the hotel if I were a woman. revelers on and en route to rooftop and in elevators were loud and out of control, esp with no staff presence to keep things safe. we encountered one front desk staffer who was helpful, the others, when presence, could barely be bothered to look up from their phone sad to see this special property decline

Not what anyone expects when booking $200 hotel rooms. No front desk or customer help when arriving. Hotel looks like people use to stay here but don’t any longer. Save your money and go to the residence inn next store. That way when the door doesn’t work or they don’t tape the code in the elevator, you don’t feel lost. Watched several older guest arrive and they were lost. The hotel should pay the bar staff and the valet for doing their jobs.

First, we lost power during the visit. Not their fault, but a little annoying. My main issue is their lack of a front desk person or anyone to take a call on property. It’s all done remotely. Which is fine as long as someone still answers the phone on site. I had to call about a lost and found item and sat on hold for 20+ minutes. That is wild! As a hotel owner myself I could NEVER let a guest sit on hold for so long. At least get a phone number and call them back. I guess my item, even if at the property, is lost for good because there is no way I could sit on hold for so long.

Nice once you get to your room. Check in beyond painful. 10 minutes of self check in with emails getting sent to junk etc as staff cannot check you in; you have to do it infront of them. Seriously, I am the paying customer!

The property is great but the attempt to make everything digital fails. The hotel says it doesn’t have a front desk and when things don’t work you are left to figure out how up get help. Please stop this cost-saving experiment which doesn’t decrease costs (paid $1000 for 2 nights) for guests but makes the guest experience mystifying to poor. Staff a front desk please.

The hotel is very hip, modern and has great facilities. They are very popular so the rooftop bar was packed and we couldn’t go in. Also staff is not easily accessible because of the business model but once you reach them they are very helpful.
